“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.”

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.

I'd like to thank Safehand for supporting PocDoc in creating our clinical risk management deliverables for our DTAC assessment and GP Connect onboarding. The Safehand onboarding process was simple and thorough, which meant we could quickly move from briefing to implementation. Safehand has made the process of becoming DCB 0129 compliant straightforward. I would like to make a special mention of Lucy Birks, our appointed Clinical Safety Officer. Lucy has guided us expertly and rapidly throughout the process and offered considerable insight. Her experience and dedication to our aims, has helped the senior management team at PocDoc to build our understanding and commitment to clinical risk management.
