The 24 Hour Surgery is experiencing high presentation numbers today.

All patients are triaged to assess their care needs, with urgent cases being seen first.

This post is to keep you updated on anticipated wait times. Keeping you well informed is important to us, as is providing care when you need it.

For health advice before visiting, call Healthline on 0800 611 116 or request a callback at healthapp.healthy.org.nz/login. You can also book a telehealth consultation through Practice Plus at practiceplus.nz.

To learn more about other health care options, visit yourbestcare.co.nz.

In an emergency, call 111 or go to the Emergency Department at Christchurch Hospital.

Thank you for your understanding.

A Special Visit from Halswell Community Group

During our busy winter period, we had a wonderful surprise visit from children and parents from Halswell Community Group. They brought poems, handmade cards, drawings, and treats for our team.

Reading their thoughtful messages and seeing their creative artwork brought smiles to everyone's faces. It was exactly the kind of boost our team needed during this hectic time.

Thank you, Halswell Community Group - your visit and thoughtful gifts made a real difference to our day and reminded us why we love what we do.

At 24 Hour Surgery, we are here to provide Urgent Care when it's needed. Because of this, we see the sickest people first, however if you have a serious emergency like bad chest pain, trouble breathing, heavy bleeding, sudden loss of consciousness, or stroke symptoms, call 111 or go straight to the hospital emergency department.

For urgent problems (depending on how bad they are, this may include bad infections, worsening asthma, broken bones, cuts needing stitches, or children getting quickly worse), our team is here to help. These patients will be seen as soon as possible.

Other options are available to support you with less urgent concerns (minor coughs, mild rashes, sore throats, etc.). Check out yourbestcare.co.nz as this site contains great information about other options available to you.

If in doubt, you can call Healthline on 0800 611 116 for free 24/7 advice about what to do next.

We work hard to see those who need us most, as quickly as we can.

We’ve had a few questions about why our posts appear and disappear — great observation!

We only post when demand is high. If you’re seeing a post, it means we’re currently experiencing increased activity and want to keep you informed. You won’t see a post every day, and we typically don’t post in the mornings unless things are particularly busy.

We do this because we’re often asked about wait times, and it’s important to us to keep you updated. Once things settle and we’re back to business as usual, the post is removed. No post generally means we are at normal operating levels.
