Convict ship surgeons played a vital role in the arduous and perilous journey of transporting convicts from their home countries to distant lands. Under varied and often difficult circumstances, the surgeons acted as both healers and custodians, ensuring the welfare of the convicts and crew aboard these prison ships.

The task of convict ship surgeons was to oversee the health and well-being of the convicts throughout the entire journey, which could last several months Their duties encompassed a wide range of responsibilities. They were responsible for conducting thorough medical examinations of the convicts, identifying any illnesses, and providing appropriate treatment. They also ensured that adequate medical supplies were available on board, including medicines; they may have also brought with them their own medical and surgical instruments.

Living conditions on board convict ships were harsh, with poor sanitation and overcrowding that lead to the spread of infectious diseases. Surgeons had to navigate these challenging circumstances, often improvising to provide the best care possible under the circumstances. Preventive measures were crucial to maintaining the health of both the convicts and the crew. Convict ship surgeons implemented basic hygiene practices, enforced regular exercise routines, and monitored the convicts' diet. They also introduced innovative measures such as ventilation and the separation of convicts based on their health conditions to minimize the risk of disease outbreaks. During the voyage, convict ship surgeons had to deal with a wide array of ailments and injuries. They treated everything from common illnesses like dysentery, scurvy, and respiratory infections to more severe conditions like fractures and injuries resulting from fights among the convicts. In some cases, they even performed surgeries, often under challenging circumstances with limited resources.

Powers and Duties of the Surgeon Superintendent:

The superintendent surgeon joins the ship before the convicts are put on board, and has the whole superintendence of them.

During the whole voyage the convicts are under his superintendence; he may inflict punishment by a limited number of lashes.

He is bound to preserve discipline, and is responsible to the Admiralty

The convicts might complain of his conduct on their arrival at Sydney to the visiting officer from the Colonial Secretary's office.

The surgeon superintendent keeps a journal, which is inspected by the governor and by the Admiralty.

He carries out a copy of the record of the crimes committed by each convict.

If there is no chaplain on board; the surgeon superintendent reads prayers, and sometimes, a sermon on Sunday, when the weather permits.

The superintendent surgeon does not leave until all the stores have been removed from the ship - Report from the Select Committee on Transportation 1837
