As a leading supplier of critical Emergency and non-emergency Ambulance systems, our focus is always to deliver clinically safe and compliant systems and functionality to our customers. In partnership with the expert and knowledgeable team at Safehand, we have been able to ensure compliance with DCB0129 across all our platforms. The team at Safehand have a unique understanding of the challenges that supplier organisations face in the ever-challenging digital world. Their approach is one of collaborative working, creating all the required documentation, providing clear and constructive feedback and advice, and supporting the overall process as a critical friend. Understanding that Clinical Safety is an on-going process, Safehand are now further supporting us with embedding Clinical Safety into the heart of our culture.

"Safehand have been invaluable helping us meet the clinical safety documentation requirements for our expansion in the UK market. From beginning to the end, they explained every aspect of the process and took steps to ensure that we were fully aware of why we were producing each deliverable. Following a well-designed, well delivered plan, it was as much an educational experience as a consulting engagement. We are delighted with our interaction with Safehand and a special thank you to our CSO for a tremendous job."

“Working with Safehand has been a breath of fresh air in what can be a complex and detailed area. We are a very fast moving health tech company with a release schedule we work hard to maintain. Safehand have consistently demonstrated that they understand our process and are willing to work with us. They challenge us where appropriate but understand us, our culture and our mission. We feel confident that Safehand isn’t just offering us a cookie cutter service but it is truly bespoke. Everyone on the Safehand team is a delight to work with and incredibly knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

“We were and continue to be delighted with our interactions with Safehand. From the first email, through to the production of our hazard log, clinical safety workshop and final report we experienced the highest level of professionalism, matched with not only extensive knowledge of the clinical safety issues but real enthusiasm to make our product better. This enthusiasm has led our team to become even more focussed on clinical safety and led to a real organisational change in designing, improving and releasing our code updates. We are looking forward to working with Safehand as we develop and enhance our offering.”

“I think that like many others, we were doing most of the right things to comply with DCB0129 already, but Safehand were able to assist us greatly in developing, accelerating and implementing our compliance strategy and by providing guidance to us to create a Product Hazard Log and associated Safety Case. The Digital Health Safety Standards and Medical Device Regulations are very specialist areas, so the access provided by Safehand to an experienced Safety Clinical Officer to work alongside us throughout the lifespan of the product, is of great benefit to our organisation.”

Look no further than Safehand for your DCB0129 needs. From the outset the experience and expertise of the Safehand team was clearly demonstrated. Eric Bulwer our Safehand Clinical Safety Officer consultant is very much part of Clinical Computing UK Ltd adding very valuable insights and perspective.

When we first started looking at DCB0129 compliance I didn’t know whether to think “this looks really simple, what’s the problem” or ” this is so complicated I don’t know how we can manage it”. On our first contact with Safehand, it turns out I was right on both counts. It is really complex! And then we met Lucy, our CSO. Right from the start, she worked with us to break the complicated process of a Clinical Safety Review of our BEST system down into simple bite-sized chunks. Her expert eye was able to separate the important from the trivial and then put in place a process that allowed us to address the requirements of the Standard in a logical way that made it easy to understand what was needed. We now have a Hazard Log that identifies the Clinical Risks, demonstrates the controls we have in place to mitigate these, and an excellently-written Clinical Safety Case report. Not only has Lucy enabled us to meet DCB0129, but also given us insight into how we can work in the future to further improve our products.

As a leading provider of medical devices and digital health solutions, patient safety and clinical compliance are of utmost importance to Mindray. Partnering with Safehand to navigate the regulatory clinical safety environment has been invaluable in achieving accreditation and ensuring the care of our customers and users. Lucy has guided us expertly and rapidly throughout the process, offering considerable insight. Her experience and dedication to our goals have helped the team at Mindray build our understanding and commitment to clinical risk management. We look forward to our continued collaboration with Lucy and Safehand as we develop and enhance our solutions.

“As a leading provider of patient self-management tools in the UK and globally, Omron have a strong history of quality management and compliance. We reached out to Safehand to support us with our regulatory readiness for our new category of remote patient monitoring solutions. We have been consistently impressed with the level of expertise within the Safehand team, their deep knowledge of the regulatory environment and the ability to develop clear and comprehensive assessments from often complex product requirements and functionality. The quality of output has been recognised by our customers and this has helped us to strengthen our own commercial relationships.”

Working with Safehand on our DCB0129 compliance was straightforward. The process was well established and robust. Our allocated CSO was an expert with real-world experience in our field and was able to quickly understand the product and its applications. We are very happy with the flexibility in supporting ongoing compliance.
