HOMED: 30 Years of Innovation in Healthcare for Ocean-Going Seafarers

With 30 years of pioneering healthcare services, HOMED now opens new horizons in ensuring the safety of seafarers navigating the oceans.

Key Services Provided by HOMED:

1. Training Officers as Maritime Medics
   HOMED offers specialized training to maritime officers, equipping them with vital medical skills to support crew health during ocean voyages.

2. Comprehensive Medical Equipment Management for Ship Clinics
   Our team ensures that every medical device on board is fully harmonized with the telemedicine system, guaranteeing a seamless healthcare experience for all crew members.

3. 24/7 Telemedicine Support by a Multidisciplinary Team of Doctors
   HOMED’s telemedicine team, composed of doctors from various specialties, is available around the clock to provide prompt and accurate care from the onset of an incident, ensuring that hospital-level care begins immediately and continues seamlessly until the patient is safely transported.

4. Emergency Evacuation Support
   In cases of urgent patient evacuation, HOMED collaborates with coastal authorities and hospitals to ensure the full, safe transport of the patient to the nearest appropriate medical facility.

Why HOMED Stands Out in Maritime Healthcare:

Highly Sought-After Training Programs Since 2009

Hundreds of doctors and paramedics from all over Greece and Cyprus consistently seek out HOMED’s training in complex interventional techniques. Using realistic models crafted from animal tissues, we provide in-depth, hands-on learning experiences.

State-of-the-Art Medical Equipment Integration

HOMED’s biomedical technology team ensures that every piece of medical equipment on board is compatible with telemedicine systems, enabling flawless integration and reliable healthcare support at sea.

Dedication to Telemedicine and Remote Care Since 1995

HOMED has been committed to telemedicine for nearly three decades. The video below, created by HOMED in 2022, demonstrates how our model has been applied to home healthcare for critically ill patients in remote locations, utilizing specially trained paramedics for effective care.

Experience in Coordinating Life-Saving Remote Care

While HOMED is known for its “Hospital at Home” innovation, the focus here is our expertise gained from this program, which makes us exceptionally qualified to coordinate all necessary actions at sea, ultimately saving lives in maritime settings.
