We delve into the intricacies of maritime health challenges, from seasickness to more severe health issues, emphasizing the importance of swift and appropriate response in the unique marine context.

Whether you’re an aspiring sailor or a seasoned seafarer, this course will equip you with the basic first-aid knowledge and procedures critical to ensuring the well-being of all those onboard.
