Nurses on cruise ships

[@bexinthebox]

Thanks for your insights as a nurse of 12 years, I have always experienced that the best doctors are the ones who trust and listen to the team they have around them 😊 Happy staff = happier patients.

[@Hawkeye2001]

This is my dream job, now that I'm retired. I worked for > 28 years as an RN. I worked in the ER / House Nursing Supervisor / Recovery Room. Also I have 20+ years as an EMT.

[@confessorags30]

I like the way you explain, I guess you understand the professionality of doctors and nurses... I like your video

[@Deltanurse]

as a nurse for 25 years.I am so happy to hear you say this !! Yes we are a Team!

[@doctoraonboard]

[@eucalyptus7813]

Hi Tam, great video 😍how many nurses are there on the average cruise ship ? what pays more ? cruise ship nursing or offshore nursing ? Thanks.

[@deck4forward]

It depends on the size of the ship, and the itinerary. It can vary from 2 nurses - 1 doctor, to 7 nurses - 3 doctors. Oil & Gas offshore nurses are some of the highest paid nurses in the world.

Amazing. Thank you very much 🙏🌸

omg that's my dream job, as soon as my kids grow up I will be applying, is there any age limit? how does working on ship really works how many weeks/months you spend on ship/sea and how many back home with familly? How many hours per day is it same as in hospital (38h per week, 12.5h per day/night)?

[@deck4forward]

Hi. yes there is an age limit about the same as in hospitals. contract durations depends on each cruise line.

[@polarissi]

@@deck4forward I am in UK, we don't have age limit here , for as long as you able to work you can work

[@OhArchie]

I rented a video once in my youth called "Cruise Ship Nurses." It was very different.

[@Ghekkoo]

Is there anything you would recommend in preparation for becoming a cruise ship nurse? Thank you for sharing🙏✨

[@deck4forward]

Same principles of nursing on land, applies at sea.

[@jonsmith233]

What shits and times do nurses work on the cruise ship and how many days off

[@deck4forward]

I hope you meant to write shifts...

[@JustinLO-y7i]

Hi great Video Doc What about Paramedics on board?

[@deck4forward]

What about it ?

[@JustinLO-y7i]

@@deck4forward do they also work with the nurses? Or are they the ones doing the Triage.

[@deck4forward]

Yes they work with the medical team within their scope of practice.

[@politebadger5049]

[@nan5195]

Thank for this video, Thai Nurse❤

[@joelpiet4338]

Where does one start the process of working in a cruise ship as a nurse or midwife?

[@deck4forward]

Google is a great start...

[@angela_3_2]

Is there any chance, since I am finishing my healthcare studies, to find a job on a cruise ship directly after studies? (Without experience besides the internships) I'm thinking in terms of finishing an additional course or taking lessons etc. And am thinking in terms of 3-4 months right after studies 😁

[@deck4forward]

You need at least 3 years of experience as an ER or ICU nurse - for your own sake as well.

[@Tonnie31]

Does a Cruise Ship hire Nurse Practitioners?

[@deck4forward]

To work as RN some cruise lines do

[@JFox29]

How many nurses are there on a cruise? If it is not for me, can I just quit?

[@deck4forward]

[@travelwithdebandnick]

Interesting video :) thanks for sharing :)

[@hannabanana5111]

Hi Dr. I just want to ask if Hospital Secretary in Cruiseship is also part of the officers?? Thank you. I will be joining the cruiseship this month and I want to know more about my position.

[@deck4forward]

Depends on the cruise line...it is best to ask your cruise line directly, if it is a deal breaker for you.

[@oliverbediako9156]

Great content sir. Are nurse assistant or LPN's working in the medical department on the cruise ship also regarded as officers and also have single cabin.

[@deck4forward]

You have to be a board certified RN with solid ER or ICU experience to work on a cruise ship as a nurse.

[@deck4forward]

Yes, you will be an officer on some cruise lines, if the medical department is under Deck. Not sure what happens when the medical department is under Hotel in other cruise lines.

[@hannabanana5111]

Thank you so much Dr. I’m a bit anxious now but I know I can do it. This will be my first contract in Costa.
