Polytechnic lecturer dies after collapsing at school
Yahoo! Newsroom – 46 minutes ago.
A polytechnic lecturer who collapsed in school on Monday has died.
Jacqueline Ho, in her 40s, a lecturer in Singapore Polytechnic’s (SP) School of Architecture & the Built Environment, was found on the floor along the corridor outside her office at about 11am on Monday after having suffered a heart attack, wrote The New Paper (TNP).
The report said that the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) responded to a call at 11:06am and, upon arrival nine minutes later, found that Ho had no pulse and was not breathing. They then used an automated external defibrillator on her and took her to the National University Hospital (NUH) while giving her cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) along the way.
The former glass painting instructor died in NUH soon after.
An SP spokesperson told Yahoo! Singapore, “Jacqueline as we know her was a very dedicated staff, passionate in her work, always bubbly and cheerful. She was popular and well liked by both her colleagues and students. Although her time with us was short, she has left us with many happy memories and made an indelible imprint upon those whose lives she touched.”
Condolence messages were also found on social networking sites Facebook and Twitter.
Soh Chee Meng said on Singapore Polytechnic’s Facebook page, “I will always remember Jac as the fun loving, jovial and yet accommodating person.”
Manfred Loh added on the same page, “Jacqueline Ho has been such a wonderful and dedicated lecturer. She was more than that. She’s also a friend. Even for modules that are not taught by her, she would help us improve on the powerpoint slides and presentation.”
@jemlwt, who gave his tribute to her on Twitter, said, “RIP Ms Jacqueline Ho. I will always remember you as a free spirited and fun loving lecturer.”
Coincidentally, Ho was in charge of the students who spent seven months planning for the Halloween Horrors event at Night Safari before it got canned, wrote TNP.
