A study has been conducted on the operation and provision of medical equipment and medication to medical personnel working on oil platforms, which poses a major challenge to those who are far off shore.
The medical center, alias sick bay, includes a check-in office, a treatment room and a bathroom with a bath.
The entrances and exits to the doctor`s office should be several to facilitate the medical treatment and evacuation of the injured, if necessary.
The sick bay on the oil platforms must be well equipped and provided with property and medication for all emergencies and possible illnesses.
