Alex Honour played a pivotal role in the successful delivery of our digital clinical safety case for the implementation of a Trust-wide, first-of-type Patient Administration System (PAS). This was an incredibly complex and high-stakes programme, involving not only a significant data migration effort, but also a major shift in working practices for thousands of staff across clinical and operational teams.

Throughout the project, Alex was thorough, approachable, and highly professional—bringing clarity and confidence to a challenging piece of work. What stood out most was Alex’s unwavering commitment to patient safety, which was evident in every question asked, every challenge raised, and every task undertaken.

Alex worked closely with our own Clinical Safety Team and has imparted knowledge and skills for them to carry forward into future projects.

The result was a comprehensive safety case that not only met immediate programme needs but also laid strong foundations for ongoing assurance as the system is further embedded and optimised.

There is so much to unpack around clinical safety and DCB0129/DCB0160 compliance. Before working with Safehand this was a painfully complex space which organisationally we knew little about. We found it challenging to understand the processes and ways to implement across our organisation. Fast forward and with their help we are making inroads and for all the right reasons.

Safehand have made the experience genuinely positive, interesting and engaging - those are words that I never thought I would use to describe our approach to 'clinical safety'. Marvellously talented people and very kind at heart. A pleasure to work with. There is a reason they have such a good reputation. If you are stuck with clinical safety, give them a call today.

The experience held by Safehand and their clear expertise in clinical safety and health tech has been fundamental in reaching DCB0129 compliance.  Safehand’s impact has been much wider than just compliance, it has woven clinical safety into all aspects of our product design, development, delivery and support. Safehand’s ability to rapidly understand the product, and how it is utilised in the real world is refreshing. The expertise brought by the team at Safehand has brought benefits not only to our organisation but every customer who uses an Inform Health product.

Our Safehand Clinical Safety Officer, Hadi, provided professional and enthusiastic support to add DCB0129 compliance to Optellum’s lung cancer AI medical device. We were very pleased with the quality of the documents Hadi produced, and the speed and efficiency with which they were delivered. We look forward to Safehand’s ongoing support for getting our product to the UK market.

We contacted Safehand to consult on the DCB0129 process with us towards the end of 2024. Being a small team, the process was initially daunting but Paul and the Safehand team helped break the process down for us and provided expert guidance on what was required.

Clinical Safety is a vitally important part of our business, and I'm delighted to say that Eric and everyone at Safehand have been truly excellent to work with. Always on hand to offer advice, guidance and information while consistently working at a pace that matches our needs. Eric has been able to adapt to the changing requirements that we have presented with ease, whilst also staying on top of our evolving capability. I really cannot recommend them highly enough!

As a small tech company, DCB0129 compliance was a daunting prospect for ShinyMind but Safehand have been extremely professional, informative, and helpful throughout the process. Their patience, flexibility and responsiveness have been particularly valued as our products have evolved and deadlines changed. Having Safehand as part of our team gives us real confidence as ShinyMind moves forward.

“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.”

Safehand has guided us through the assessment processes for DCB0129 standard. When we first spoke to Adrian, he promised a personal service, working with us through every step of this complex process. That is exactly what they delivered. Shelley‘s clinical background allowed her to understand our software and our work with hospices across the UK where clinical safety is paramount. Shelley, and everyone we have spoken to at Safehand, have been professional and friendly throughout, making the whole process much more manageable. We are looking forward to a long and ongoing relationship with them.

Safehand has been a trusted advisor and partner in our DCB0129 compliance process, as well as in providing broader guidance on software as a medical device for Bliksund EWA, our digital record solution for emergency professionals. Their team has demonstrated deep expertise, offering clear and pragmatic advice that integrates seamlessly into our operational approach. Their reliability and ability to simplify complex regulatory requirements have made the entire process smooth and efficient. Safehand's knowledge, professionalism, and practical mindset make them a pleasure to work with, and we highly recommend them to any organisation navigating the landscape of medical regulations and software.
