Yes. Modern anaesthesia is extremely safe. Your anaesthesiologist conducts a thorough pre-operative assessment of your health, medications, and risk factors to personalise your anaesthetic plan and ensure the safest possible experience.

General anaesthesia renders you fully unconscious. Spinal anaesthesia numbs the lower half of the body while you remain awake or lightly sedated — it is commonly used for lower limb and caesarean procedures.

Any existing medical conditions, current medications, allergies, previous anaesthetic reactions, and whether you have eaten or drunk anything — all of this information is important for your safety.

Yes. Non-invasive labour analgesia is available at Sunrise for mothers who prefer a pain-free birthing experience. This is offered as part of the Sunrise Haven experience and on request for all maternity patients.
