A New Era of Maritime Healthcare by HOMED

Maritime Crew Medical Training

HOMED offers something unique and innovative to the global shipping industry: a comprehensive telemedicine support system that integrates training, technology, and 24/7 medical care.

Tailored Training for a Global Workforce

Seafarers aboard ships come from diverse countries and cultures. HOMED ensures high-quality training through a fully online model that caters to this international audience.

• Educational Videos: Shipping companies receive access codes to training videos covering all necessary medical skills. Seafarers can watch the material at their own pace, ensuring thorough understanding.
• Webinars: Regular online meetings allow trainees to engage directly with instructors. These interactive sessions provide an opportunity to discuss topics in depth and clarify any questions.
• Certification: Trainees who complete the video training, participate in webinars, and pass multiple-choice questionnaires are awarded certification.
• Hands-on Training in Athens: For those who wish to enhance their skills, we offer additional practical training on fresh and artificial models, as well as practice sessions on volunteers, at our Athens clinic.

We are also producing high-quality video content for use on maritime vessels and in medical schools, training programs, and healthcare institutions around the world.
