Updated Proficiency In Medical Care

This is the refresher course for Proficiency in Medical Care and should be taken every 5 years to update your knowledge and to keep your MCA CoC valid.

This course covers the syllabus required by the STCW Code 1995 Table AVI/4-2. It is a management-level course aimed at those holding and re-validating Master 500gt/3000gt MCA Certificates of Competencies in deck specialisations and those designated to take charge of medical care on board ships.

The course aims to refresh students’ knowledge to be able to deliver longer-term medical care at sea until professional medical help can be obtained. It includes care for sick and injured patients, head and spinal injuries, ear, nose and throat problems, bleeding, care of wounds, pain relief, suturing, diseases, injections, dental care, hygiene and medical records.

A pass is valid indefinitely but must be renewed every five years if you are the Master or have designated responsibility for medical care on board. 

This course is fully redeemable with your ONE Account vouchers.
