Global Mercy
The world’s largest civilian hospital ship
MV Global Mercy is the world’s largest civilian hospital ship, constructed as the first purpose-built floating hospital for humanitarian organization Mercy Ships. In addition to providing free surgical, medical, and dental care, Mercy Ships is committed to investing in local healthcare infrastructure in ways that will continue to have a positive impact long after the ship leaves port. During the ship’s 50-year life expectancy, it is estimated that surgery alone will change the lives of 150.000 people.
