To ensure the well-being of crew members, medical facility providers should offer comprehensive services both onshore and onboard ships.
Onshore facilities should be equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment, trained healthcare professionals, and specialized services to handle emergencies, provide routine check-ups, and offer mental health support. These facilities should be conveniently located near major ports to ensure easy access for crew members.
Equally important is the provision of medical facilities onboard ships. The facility provider should collaborate with shipping companies to equip vessels with medical kits, telemedicine capabilities, and provide guidance on health and safety protocols. This enables crew members to receive immediate medical attention and consultations during emergencies or while at sea.
