Cruise and river vessels host hundreds or even thousands of international guests and crew, creating a complex medical environment. While larger cruise ships have onboard medical staff and facilities, smaller river cruises may lack dedicated medical personnel and have limited equipment. Managing medical care in this setting requires navigating strict regulations like the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), guest expectations, and operational demands both onboard and ashore.
