List of hospitals and hospital ships of the Royal Navy HMHS is an acronym for His/Her Majesty's Hospital Ship .Seventeenth century The earliest record of British hospital ship was Goodwill , which briefly accompanied a Royal Navy squadron in the Mediterranean in 1608 or 1609. From 1665 the Royal Navy formally maintained two hospital ships at any time, these being either hired merchant ship or elderly sixth rates, modified from their original design by the removal of internal bulkheads and addition of ports cut through the deck and hull for ventilation. The limit of two hospital ships at a time remained in place until the Nine Years' War at century's end. In 1691 there were four hospital ships in service , rising to five in 1693 and six in 1696.seventeenth century hospital ships were staffed by a surgeon and four surgeon's mates . Standard medical supplies were bandages, soap, needles and bedpans, and patients were issued with a clean pair of sheets . Infectious patients were quarantined from the general population behind a sheet of canvas. In addition to her sailing crew, each vessel was staffed with a surgeon and four surgeon's mates. The quality of food was very poor. In the 1690s the surgeon aboard Siam complained that the meat was in an advanced state of putrefaction , the biscuits were weevil-ridden and bitter, and the bread was so hard that it stripped the skin from patient's mouths.Vessel name Tons burthen Guns Crew Hospital service Goodwill not recorded not recorded not recorded 1608 or 1609 Joseph 101 4 30-40 1665 Loyal Catherine 298 36-40 35 1665-1666 Maryland Merchant not recorded 41 40 1666 John's Advice 330 16 40-54 1672-1674 Unity 118 6-8 not recorded 1683 Welcome 78 10 not recorded 1683 Helderenberg 242 18-30 50 1688 Concord 352 22-30 45 1690-1695 Society 357 22-30 45 1690-1697 Baltimore 300/324 20 45 1691 Spencer 245 20 40-45 1691 London Merchant 250 22-30 30-45 1692-1696 Siam 333 22-30 45-58 1693-1697 Bristol 532 20 40-45 1692-1694, 1696-1697 Josiah 664 30 30 1696 Muscovy Merchant 250 24 45 1696 London Merchant 250 22-30 30-45 1692-1696
