Informed practice. Compliant care. Better outcomes.
At Red Square Medical, we specialise in delivering operationally relevant medical support to the maritime industry—ashore and afloat. Our primary objective is to enable vessels and operators to meet their duty of care obligations by ensuring crews are protected, ships are prepared, and medical non-compliances are proactively avoided.
Our services are developed and delivered by experienced seafarers and healthcare professionals, with a clear understanding of the operational, legal, and clinical demands of shipboard environments. We focus on practical, scalable solutions—integrating with existing systems where possible, and designing new resources where required.
Relationship-driven and standards-led, we work in partnership with our clients to ensure consistent, compliant medical readiness across their fleets.
