"Clinical safety and compliance forms the bedrock of a reliable product that can be trusted by healthcare providers. Safehand have supported MaST to develop a portfolio of documents and processes, to ensure we are compliant with DCB 0160. MaST uses data and analytics to support mental health clinicians to make decisions and so having sound advice and clarity on product regulatory position is of utmost importance. Safehand have been supportive and responsive and have helped us navigate the clinical safety landscape."

“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."

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.

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.

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.

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.

Although experienced in many sectors and methodologies, and well versed in IT risk management; clinical safety, and navigation around DCB0129 compliance in particular, was a new venture for us. What was obvious was that this is no area for naïve stumbling around, or ignorant lip-service to the process. What is required is experienced professionals with established, industry-proven, yet flexible and adaptable processes. This is our experience of working with Safehand, and in particular Lucy, our Clinical Safety Officer. She has quickly become a valued and valuable member of the team, who continues to guide us through what without her could easily be overwhelming, time-consuming and therefore costly processes to meet the standards. Knowledgeable and efficient, Lucy has also been friendly and open to our thoughts and suggestions where appropriate. I would not hesitate in recommending Safehand to other companies in similar circumstances.
