When illness or injury strikes far out at sea, making the right decisions at the right time is critical. That's why we at Youwell, in close collaboration with Gard and Radio Medico, developed Mariners Medico Guide (MMG) - a digital tool that gives seafarers structured, practical, and life-saving advice in medical emergencies on board.
MMG was approved in 2022 and has since become an important resource for ships around the world. The guide is specially designed for non-medical crew, helping them assess symptoms, follow checklists, and prepare before contacting medical support ashore. By systematising observations and actions, it reduces the risk of errors and saves precious minutes. The solution has full offline functionality, essential in ocean areas without a network connection.
We at Youwell are proud to contribute technology that makes a real difference for people in acute need. Mariners Medico Guide shows how digital innovation can save lives, even in demanding situations far out at sea.
- Øyvind Grimsgaard, CEO of Youwell
This is a tool that can make a big difference for safety at sea. We believe it will give captains and crew a better foundation for acting quickly and correctly when it matters most.
- Captain Gaurav Kapoor, General Manager, Pacific Carriers Limited
Mariners Medico Guide is clear proof of what's possible when technology, knowledge, and social responsibility meet.
