You can link to any page on the healthdirect (Opens in new tab) or Pregnancy, Birth and Baby (Opens in new tab) websites, or you may wish to link to a particular tool or theme page, depending on your audience and the focus of your website, including:

Why link to our websites?

We publish thousands of resources and health content pages across our websites. Content is sourced from leading Australian health organisations, which are assessed for the clinical quality of their resources, or it is written by health professionals.

Through linking, other organisations can provide access to this content via their own websites and be assured that the information is clinically accurate.

Is it safe to deep link?

While our team makes every effort to maintain URLs, occasionally we may need to edit or archive certain pages. We recommend that you review any deep links on a regular basis to prevent ‘404 Page Not Found’ errors.

Please note that the www. prefix is required at the beginning of all URLs.
