Health Resources

Your health is precious – why not do all you can to preserve it?

It’s great to have Southern Cross health insurance and travel insurance to protect against the cost of illness.  And it's nice to know you can access private elective surgery at Southern Cross Hospitals when you need it.  But you would probably be even happier if you didn't get ill in the first place!

Some medical problems are unavoidable, of course. But at Southern Cross we have an interest in promoting wellness, as well as helping to take care of you when you’re sick.

Our plain-English Medical Library, offers information about a broad range of medical conditions and procedures, including prevention tips and health promotion ideas.  The library also features sections on Children's Health, Men's Health and Women's Health.

And there’s our Health Features - magazine-style stories themed around healthier living.  This is a great place to browse if you want to pick up ideas and tips to enhance the health of you and your family. Take a look around, or type the health subject or medical condition you're interested in into the Site Search box at the top, right of this page.
