  1. >In November of last year, a Thai female nurse who was traveling in Japan rescued an elderly man who collapsed on the platform at Asakusa Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line in Taito Ward, Tokyo. On the 21st, the Thai Nursing Council released a commendation post on Facebook.

    >The woman is a nurse at a police hospital, Lieutenant Colonel Sunaree Kiaoslap. Around noon on November 27, she performed life-saving procedures on an elderly man who had collapsed on the platform at Asakusa Station and lost consciousness. As the man had no pulse, she asked the station staff to bring an automated external defibrillator (AED), which she applied to him. However, the man’s pulse returned, so the AED was not used. She handed over the man to the arriving emergency personnel.

    >The Thai Nursing Council stated, “Using the knowledge and abilities of nurses for the benefit of people creates happiness in society.”

    >Tokyo Metro confirmed the incident and commented, “The woman who assisted in the rescue did not identify herself and left, but we would like to express our gratitude for her cooperation.”

    Outstanding work Ma’am.

    I always wonder if I collapse with a heart attack if Japanese will just walk around me assuming I’m drunk.
