Peace of mind for a safe and healthy crew
With the health and safety of crew and passengers paramount, XChange Telemed provides the ideal, cost-efficient solution for managing illness or injuries onboard and meets the new ILO/MLC and IMO/STCW labour regulations for crew health and medical treatment. Furthermore, thanks to the secure transmission and storing of medical data, XChange Telemed assists the onshore medical professional in his decision-making, and may thereby avoid unnecessary and costly vessel re-routings or evacuation. The solution comprises a compact suitcase with CE certified medical equipment and an interactive web portal facilitating immediate video medical consultations and giving doctors full access to the patient’s medical data; ensuring crew members receive fast, effective and interactive medical support.

Large-scale worldwide logistics and 24/7 Customer Care
By enabling real-time teleconferencing with experienced Doctors ashore, many crew illnesses and injuries can be treated onboard reducing down time for a sick or injured crew member, and providing important documentation in the event of a crew claim. Furthermore, the use of this system could significantly prevent the need for an expensive helicopter evacuation or vessel rerouting (the cost of which would likely far exceed the entire lifetime cost of the Telemed service.)
