Working with Safehand has been a pleasure from first contact with their Managing Director regarding developing a suite of documentation to ensure compliance with DCB0129 to our ongoing relationship with our Clinical Safety Officer contracted via Safehand. They not only have an excellent understanding of the legislative requirements, but have broad experience and knowledge of the healthcare sector which has helped us painlessly navigate our way through what is a complex process and requirement.

Business Manager, EPAQ Systems Ltd.

I would like to take the time to commend Safehand in general, and particularly Oyinkan for an outstanding job in helping the HomeSight solution get to DCB 0129 compliance satisfactorily. Oyinkan was thorough, and exercised awesome due diligence during the entire process, and the remarkable thing is that through her logical thought process and presenting material, always with “why an evidence, or control, or a process is required”, helped us to refine our thinking to bring in a “Clinical Safety” mindset and angle to whatever we do. While we had to work harder to fill the gaps in our documentation, processes and test scripts, we were doing it with vigour knowing that all these contribute to a stronger solution that can stand proud in the market.

Oyinkan is an absolute asset, and a real pleasure to work with. She put us at ease, while politely being firm on the requirements as should be the case. We are happy to retain her as the CSO and we are very pleased with Safehand in terms of the engagement.

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.

Jon Howard
Director, ShinyMind

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.

Andy Martin
National ICS Lead, Change Grow Live

Safehand managed to walk us through the DCB 0129 assessment process in a highly professional manner. Hadi and Adrian were extremely capable and took the time to really understand our business processes and application in the broader healthcare market. This is a daunting project to undertake without professional guidance and I will recommend Safehand to those invested in clinical safety and risk mitigation to lead them through this process.

Dr. Conrad Fivaz
President, Priority Solutions Inc.

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!

Sam Wood
Product Manager, Medical Management Systems (Meddbase)

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.

Martin Fletcher
Customer Services Director, Medilogik Limited

We found Safehand to be an excellent organisation to work with when completing our DCB0129. They demonstrated their experience and a breadth and depth of knowledge, which when coupled with their ability to communicate complicated issues clearly, made what could have been a difficult process very manageable. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to any other organisation looking for a competent CSO.

Julie Evason
MD, Health Diagnostics

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

“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.”
