Pre-Admission Assessments
Patients admitting to the SGH for elective (planned) surgery under general anaesthesia will be referred to the Pre-Admission Centre (PAC) for pre-surgery counselling, risk assessment and health optimisation.
Anaesthesia
Anaesthetics is given to you to so that you do not feel pain or induce sleep during the surgery or procedure.
Financing Your Admission
Use Admissions Buddy, our online service for patients to review their estimated inpatient bill
What to bring for your admission?
You will be informed of your reporting time and location for your surgery. Find out what you need to bring.
