SeaCalm is a proactive mental health solution, not just reactive. An innovative solution for ship owners to identify problems before they become one.
A web-based application using a mobile phone via a QR code to help identify the negative trajectory of poor mental health that affects both the seafarer and the company bottom line.
SeaCalm survey consists of 8 to 10 maritime-specific questions, designed by a former seafarer and U.S. licensed psychotherapist. This concise survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete, providing a comprehensive 'here and now' snapshot without daily questioning. Seafarers are not required to complete them before accessing the internet.
Confidential survey results go directly to only SeaCalm, not the Captain or Shipowner/Operator.
If a seafarer wants to talk to someone, at the end of the survey they can privately indicate this and with their permission we reach out. Seafarers are not passed to a third party company and speaks to mental health professionals that have been at sea—us!
We get it! Seafarers have concerns about surveys. To address this, we engage them providing psychological safety with relatable information how it works in a creative format and aligns with confidential help so they can be their best selves.
