SMRT staff helpful in time of asthma attack

On a busy morning of 12 Mar. mdm rafidah kamsani suffered an asthma attack while travelling west-bound on the MRT. she got off at the next stop which was Outram. She was literally gasping for air despite using her inhaler.

Seeing her in this state, two SMRT officers approached and led her to the back of the station and offered her the oxygen mask. When her breathing did not improve, they immediately offered to call the ambulance but she didnt take up the offer as Outram station was only a walking distance away from SGH.

So, they accompanied her all the way through the crowd, up the escalator and waited until she could get a taxi. Even as she thanked them profusely for their help, they handed her a bottle of mineral water and told her to take care.

I think SMRT has done a wonderful job to keep passengers well and safe. If not for the two helpful officers, Mdm Rafidah may have lost her life if her breathing did not improve.

Kindness begets kindness and it goes a long way. Many of us nowadays are lack of kindness as we either do not care or do not have the time. If the world is filled of unkind people, there will be no one to help us in times of need. So spread the kindness today! :)
