About: Cruise Ship - Nurse

In the role of Nurse on board one of our luxury cruise ships you will be faced with a varied caseload on a daily basis and the experiences you will gain will be hard to come by in any other medical environment. From minor illnesses to major trauma your day will be one of unusual scenarios – you should not expect it all to be the stereotypical sea sickness and sunburn.

You’ll provide and maintain high standards of individualised patient care for passengers and crew and will ensure a safe and efficient Nursing operation within the Medical Centre for all routine and emergency care for passengers and crew.

Of course, in addition to routine surgery hours there will be on call duties for emergency visits and admissions. As first medical responder to emergency calls on board, you’ll assess patients and take appropriate action.

In-patient care on board encompasses the management of a wide variety of clinical problems including cardiac disease (thrombolysis and cardiac monitoring), trauma/orthopaedic problems and acute medical emergencies.
