Naval Aero Medical Centre

The Naval Aero Medical Centre was established in 2005 at Goa, as the central agency for addressing aero medical issues, peculiar to the Navy, that arise from time to time. The centre functions under an Officer-in-Charge. Its functions include aero-medical evaluation of aircrew, aircraft and equipment assembles. It also provides consultancy to Naval Air Stations, co-ordinates and does independent research, conducts important regular training courses for Aviators and Medical Officers in Spatial Disorientation and Operational Aerospace Medicine respectively.

Presently NAMC operates from an old heritage but completely refurbished building that once housed INHS Jeevanti. Future plans include moving out to a brand new modern complex which will house state of the art simulators for aircrew training.
