Survey - Seamen’s Hospital Society

The Institute of Occupational Medicine, an independent research organisation, is carrying out a nationwide survey on behalf of the Seamen’s Hospital Society with funding from the Maritime Charities Funding Group (MCFG), investigating access to health care by working age seafarers based in the UK.

They want to know about the health needs of seafarers and their experiences of accessing health care. The questionnaire takes about ten minutes to complete and every participant can enter a free draw to win an iPod Nano. More information on the study and the link to the web-questionnaire can be found at http://www.iom-world.org/research/seafarershealth.php.

If you have any queries about the research or would prefer a paper copy of the questionnaire please contact Dr Laura MacCalman at seafarershealth@iom-world.org or by phoning 0131 449 8094.
