Mobio Interactive is extremely pleased with the diligence and efficiency provided by Safehand. In particular, Natalie Hall has been the Clinical Safety Officer for our digital therapeutic platform AmDTx for over a year. In that time she has guided our team through the entire DCB 0129 certification process, as well as contributing meaningfully to the platform development and overall regulatory and certification strategy. We look forward to an ongoing partnership ensuring the clinical safety of all our digital interventions for mental health and CNS disorders.

At Log my Care, ensuring compliance with NHS clinical safety standards was paramount and partnering with Safehand provided us with the expert guidance needed to navigate the complexities of DCB 0129. Their team's deep understanding and practical approach made the process seamless, allowing us to integrate safety into every facet of our platform. Thanks to Safehand, we achieved compliance swiftly and efficiently.

Adam Hurst
Co-Founder, CTO, Log My Care

We approached Safehand to provide the Clinical Safety guidance required to achieve DCB0129 compliance. We found Richard to be very approachable and professional, guiding us through the process in a clear and structured way. His expertise was instrumental in helping us navigate the complexities of the DCB0129 framework with confidence. Safehand acted as a trusted partner, and we are very grateful for their assistance in enabling us to achieve this critical milestone.

Julie Somerville
Client Partner Safety, Hexagon

"As a small company, it’s just not realistic for us to employ a fulltime DCB 0129 Clinical Safety Officer. Safehand are able to perfectly fill that gap. We get the enormous benefit of a CSO with wide industry experience to work alongside us as we grow. So many clinicians think they can just turn their hand to the complexities of DCB 0129 risk management having completed the mandatory training. The Safehand staff have been doing this work for over a decade and that experience shines through in everything they do. We’ve been working with Adrian for several years as our CSO – he is very friendly, extremely diligent and a true professional."

Taz Aldawoud
CEO, Doc Abode

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.

Tim Brennan
Managing Director, Clinical Computing

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.

Polly Esplen
Managing Director, The Care Database

As an emerging digital agency venturing into healthcare software products, we found ourselves trying to navigate the complexities of the world of Clinical Safety and DCB0129 compliance. Safehand has proved to be an invaluable partner in this journey. Their meticulous approach and commitment to understanding our product ensures our compliance is robust and fit for purpose. Our nominated CSO, Lisa, guides us every step of the way, instilling the utmost confidence in us. We highly recommend Safehand for their professionalism, dedication, and expertise.

Tom Montgomery
Head of operations, Trauma App

"Safehand Consulting have become a very important part of our company.  Their level of expertise, sensible advice and approachability make them a great company to work with. In addition their help in setting up in-house processes has been invaluable. We would recommend them to anyone looking for Clinical Safety guidance and advice."

Steve Treadwell
Director, Silicon Practice

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.

Hayley Grafton
Chief Nursing Information Officer, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust

Working with Safehand has been both rewarding and informative, their continued support in ensuring Medilogik EMS continues to comply with its DCB0129 requirements. Their level of detail in understanding our platform and the fast-paced requirement of improving clinical reporting is invaluable to keeping our product current, this is testament to them supplying a CSO who understands the service requirements.
