There is a wide range of information about human swine flu (H1N1 influenza 09) available from the NSW Department of Health website. All people, including children's services workers, parents and foster carers are urged to keep up to date with the latest advice.

On 17 June 2009, NSW Health adjusted the state's Human Swine Influenza response to PROTECT. See the PROTECT Phase Overview and what it means.
