    I had a panic attack on day 6 of 7 and the nurse that checked us in kept telling us that it will cost a lot of money if you end up seeing the dr. She was being attentive but trying to sway us to not see the dr. She gave me a paper bag and tried to calm me, I didn't know at the time what it was and I was stressing something fierce, it kept getting worse. So my husband insisted after about 30 mins of no improvement, that we see the dr. Anyway the dr was great he checked my heart, did a ekg, my blood sugar, my blood pressure. Several things, I felt well taken care of. After consulting with my husband and I he said it was a panic attack gave me some meds for the night and the next day. I said all that to say this. I felt cared for and I felt the medical staff we all professional and concerned for my wellness. This video is exactly how clean and well kept the hospital was on our ship. I'm thankful for all the nurses and doctors out there, land and sea.

    That is so interesting! My brother got sick once on the Celebrity Summit (luckily it was the last day), everyone was very nice. He and my Dad were allowed to go back to one of the rooms while my mom and I stayed back. I think a cool video idea (when you are back on the ship) would be showing off the "Brig" if you are allowed.

    I so appreciate the medical staff onboard Royal Caribbean Group ships. My husband "deck toed", called "turf toed" on land, his foot playing soccer on a Royal Caribbean President's Cruise. He got excellent care from the medical staff, including an x-ray to insure it wasn't a break. But the care didn't stop there. Our cabin attendant made sure my husband had ice in our cabin to ice his foot. Guest Relations and medical staff called to follow up on his recovery. I like to think this level of care would have been just as great even if weren't a President's Cruise with the cruise line president, Michael Bayley, onboard.

We are trained in rescues, fast responses, thinking outside of the box, we are also required to have the Advanced Cardiac and Pediatric Cardiac life support certifications, we can intubation, do surgical crics, needle decompression. Along with a multitude of other skills.

    I once observed a ship-to-ship medical transport off the NCL Sea near Bermuda in 2003 during heavy seas. Hurricane Fabian was bearing down on Bermuda, and the medical emergency (maybe appendicitis?) was significant enough that the captain turned around and headed back into the waves to get the crew member off. Then we turned around again and booked it for safer waters...I remember physically leaning into the wind as we were sprinting out, and ship staff I talked to the next day said we were actually surfing the waves for a while.

    As an travel LPN in my 9th year I was interested in looking into a cruise contract. But I see if all cruises have similar requirements I don't meet the requirements. I've never worked ICU or ED. Guess I need to take some more classes and check out the ED. My current specialty is geriatrics which in itself I've experience many emergencies. Maybe I can look into a cruise line that's mainly for the elderly cruisers. 🤷‍♀️
