The intensive care unit (ICU) nurses on board the #AfricaMercy and the #GlobalMercy get plenty of variety in their work, serving in the hospital ward and then responding to the ICU when patients are admitted. #MercyShips has openings for #volunteers:

What keeps us afloat?
It’s not just the ship. It’s care that shows up in unexpected ways.

People like Will Balantyne, a carpenter on board, using their skills where they are needed most.

Different skills. One mission. Could your help? https://t.co/j7L8wSGWLY

12-year-old Lucile had been living with knock-knees that made walking difficult.

With support from the orphanage that cares for her and her brothers, she was connected to #MercyShips and received surgery on board the #AfricaMercy.

Today, Lucile can walk straight again.

Yesterday, the #AfricaMercy sailed from Madagascar, beginning her journey to Durban for an extended Annual Maintenance Period.

The voyage from Toamasina is expected to take around six and a half days, weather permitting.
