VIKAND has joined forces with Gourdomichalis Maritime SA (GMSA) to bolster the welfare of GMSA’s seafarers by integrating Navarino’s tools into VIKAND’s OneHealth telehealth platform.
The initial rollout will cover four GMSA vessels: Kavo Aetos, Kavo Yeraki, Kavo Alkyon, and Kavo Perdika. According to VIKAND, the telehealth package includes the VIKAND Connect app, emergency medical assistance, medivac support, and mental health services, granting round-the-clock access to medical professionals worldwide.
Crew wellbeing is a top priority. With technology and services from VIKAND and Navarino, we can sail with new confidence, secure in the knowledge that a dedicated team is there to assist our crew members wherever they are.
