St George’s Eye Care is now offering a cutting-edge genetic test to assess glaucoma risk, thanks to Clinical Director and Consultant Ophthalmologist Dr Paul Baddeley, one of the first South Island providers to support this advancement.

We’re proud to share that St George’s Hospital has been awarded the McFedries Trophy at the 2025 Christchurch Beautifying Association Awards, recognising the entire hospital site for its outstanding gardens and beautifully maintained green spaces.

Erin Bensley (Ngāti Kahungunu ki Te Wairoa) has always been drawn to roles that combine clinical care with systems thinking. She began her nursing career in the neurosurgery and neurology ward at Christchurch Public Hospital while completing postgraduate studies in neurosciences. Her growing interest in data and information management led her to study Nursing and Health Leadership and Management, eventually stepping into her current role as Clinical Informatics Manager at St George’s Hospital.

St George’s Cancer Care Centre in Christchurch is now equipped with cutting-edge radiation therapy technology, thanks to a generous donation from the Hugo Charitable Trust which has purchased a Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) system.

Under St George’s Sustainability Policy, the hospital has made a commitment to reduce its CO2 emissions by 30% within six years under a new decarbonisation project.

When a patient is admitted to St George’s they bring a lot of crucial information with them, both in their personally-completed pre-admission forms, and in the health files from their surgeons, specialists and GPs.
