Nurse Working In S’pore Passes Away, SGH Providing Assistance To Family

Nurse Who Worked At SGH Passes Away On 3 Dec

UPDATE (10 Dec): Singapore General Hospital (SGH) has issued a statement on the incident, sharing that they’re rendering assistance to the deceased’s family during these trying times.

The hospital also urged the public not to speculate on the case, out of respect for the family and other SGH staff.

It’s never easy for anyone when someone they know passes on, especially when it comes out of the blue.

Given the struggles that many frontliners face, it also hits as hard, if not more so, for fellow frontliners when one of their own passes on.

A nurse who worked at SGH passed away last week.

Rest in peace, Karunyah

A frontliner’s passing is a loss to the profession and Singapore. As evidenced by the messages, she will definitely be missed.

And as echoed in the tributes, do look out for your loved ones and co-workers during this period — this is a tough time for everyone, but frontliners are among the ones who have it much harder.
