The Platform

Everything You Need at Sea

Structured clinical tools and immersive training designed for the realities of remote medicine.

Clinical Simulations

Immersive emergency scenarios with evolving vitals, weather conditions, and branching decisions set in real maritime environments.

ECG Lab

Maritime-context ECG challenges with clinical correlation for shipboard rhythm interpretation and remote cardiology.

Operational Medicine

SBAR-M communication frameworks, bridge language, escalation pathways, and USPH/VSP-aligned protocols.

Medevac Decision Tools

Structured evacuation frameworks for defensible decisions when helicopter range is exceeded and weather is deteriorating.

Outbreak Management

Norovirus, respiratory and GI outbreak containment using VSP-aligned isolation, reporting, and governance frameworks.

Emergency Pathways

No-CT stroke protocols, shipboard STEMI management, remote sepsis workflows, and delayed evacuation care.

Immersive Scenario

When deterioration happens 500 miles from ICU

52-year-old crew member. ST elevation V2-V4. Nearest port: 14 hours. Helicopter range exceeded. Weather deteriorating. Your decisions matter.

About the Creator Dr. Ezekiel Osolika — Emergency Physician and Maritime Medicine Educator

Built by a clinician who has lived the medicine at sea.

Every simulation and framework comes from direct operational experience — isolation, limited resources, weather constraints, and clinical decisions made without hospital backup. On day 4 of a transatlantic crossing, when the nearest hospital is 400 miles away and the weather is closing in, you learn what really matters in your training.

FAQ

Common Questions

Is this suitable for nurses and paramedics, or only doctors?
Yes. The clinical simulations and operational frameworks are designed for all maritime clinicians — doctors, nurses, paramedics, and offshore medics. The Interview Guide also covers nurse-specific interview preparation.
Does the app work offline at sea?
Yes. The ShipDoctor Pro app (coming soon) will work fully offline. All scenarios, ECG challenges, and clinical tools will be available without internet connectivity — essential for maritime environments.
What format are the resources in?
The Playbook and Interview Guide are delivered as high-quality PDF files for instant download. The ShipDoctor Pro app (coming soon) delivers interactive simulations on mobile devices.
Is this accredited for CPD / CME?
We are currently working on formal CPD accreditation. The content is developed by a board-certified emergency physician with maritime medicine experience and aligns with current clinical guidelines.
Do you offer institutional or fleet pricing?
Yes. We offer bulk licensing and institutional packages for cruise lines, offshore operators, and medical staffing agencies. Contact us for a custom quote.
What is your refund policy?
Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final and we don't offer refunds once a file has been downloaded, except where required by law (e.g. a faulty or misdescribed file). If something's wrong with your download, email us and we'll fix it. See our Sales & Refund Policy.
