Standard Occupational Classification (SOC): Ship Engineers

Ship engineers in healthcare are responsible for the maintenance and repair of the mechanical and electrical systems on ships and boats used in the healthcare industry. These systems include engines, generators, propulsion systems, and other mechanical and electrical equipment. They work to ensure that the ship is safe and efficient to operate, and that it complies with all relevant regulations.

In healthcare, ship engineers may be responsible for maintaining and repairing medical equipment such as diagnostic imaging equipment, laboratory equipment, and medical ventilators. They may also be responsible for maintaining and repairing the ship’s systems such as the air conditioning, water treatment, and sanitation systems.

Ship engineers in healthcare may also need to be aware of the specific regulations and guidelines related to healthcare ships, such as the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) regulations for the Medical Care On Board ships, which covers the requirements for medical facilities and equipment on board ships. They may also need to work closely with the ship’s medical staff to ensure that the ship’s systems and equipment are in good working condition and meet the needs of the medical crew.

It’s worth noting that the healthcare industry does not have a significant presence of ships, and the use of ships as healthcare facilities is limited.
