“Dead bodies, they are dead. I’m more scared of the living.” CNA Insider gains unprecedented access to the TTSH mortuary and finds out from its supervisor – Moshien Mohamed, 62 – what it is like working with dead bodies and what happens on the last leg of a patient’s journey.
WATCH IN 360: Experience the mortuary
When he first started working at the morgue, even though he did not consider himself superstitious, he admitted that he was also a little fearful – that he would “hear some noise”, for example. “But as time went by, the fear went away,” Mr Moshien said. And in all the years since, “nothing has happened”.
He has even inspired his daughter Shahirah Moshien to become a nurse who now performs the last office for patients who pass away while under her care. She says that the last office is significant not only for a patient and the family, but also the nurses themselves, as a symbol of their final goodbye.

Im crying 😭
LORD I say a very big thank you God for your Marcy and protections
I love that they still tell them everything they are doing or gonna do that is key still giving them dignity
Definitely a place I would definitely not want to work
That's the truth!
Just part of living we all will die. Be happy for the time you have.
Thank you to these amazing human beings for working hard each day. My father passed in 2015 and it gives me hope to see that there are still great human beings in this world! 🙏❤️

A great lesson.
The nurse has a lovely face. She's really pretty…
It's called a morgue, A mortuary is a place where funeral services are held, A morgue is a place in a hospital downtown below where the dead are prepared FOR transport to A mortuary for viewing and later the burial..
So sad
Peter Gore Seer,
NHS UK Stopping Burials For Up To Six Weeks, But If The Family Agree To Body Labeled With COVID Then Next Day Funerals?.
5:25 the 'lost' family usually appear out of the woodwork if they think they have something to gain from it. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. I too will die alone, I have no other family left, I'm the last living member of my family.
Very moving.
There is not enough money in this whole world to get me to touch a dead body, no waaaayyyy!!!
Innalillah wainnailaihi rojiuun
Every job is dignified
I can't work in place 😭 like that
Here in the states we don’t clean the body because of evidence!
I like a mortuary job anyone can help me to get it
Learning that they talk to the patient just broke my heart but also warmed it a bit. My grandmother died
Do you need to have a bed remove to the bed and into the shower and be washed not with a washcloth because the patient still continue to stink. They need to use soap and water and a shower.
Such a nice set up clean n lively
Thank you for this informative video. It has made me think about the way I connect with people.
