Health is personal.
So is the way we work.
We provide hospital management and medical consultancy for the maritime industry — but what that really means is simpler: when something happens at sea, the right people are already on it. We look after crew and passengers the way we’d look after our own, and we run that care with the precision a fleet depends on.
We’re a maritime medical services provider built for the realities of life at sea. Hospital management, telemedical consultancy, onboard care and the coordination behind it — delivered with the same dedication and compassion we’d want for our own family, and the operational discipline your fleet runs on.
Who we are
Hanseatic Maritime Health brings together specialised doctors, registered nurses and maritime professionals from around the world, coordinated from our base in Hamburg, Germany and our operational hub in Constanța, Romania.
We take a holistic view of health and safety at sea — one that reduces medical-related sign-offs and, above all, helps crews return home safely.
We are a member of the Schulte Group, a family-owned maritime company with more than 140 years of history and one of the largest ship-management networks in the world. That gives us something rare in maritime healthcare: medical depth, backed by genuine operational scale.
