Award-winning InterVene® Limited is a UK-based medical device company formed in December 2007 to bring to market a range of speciality medical devices in niche areas of the healthcare industry where there are few competitive alternatives. The company already has five product lines on framework agreements or on specific contracts with the NHS and recently won the regional Medilink award for the best start-up company.
All our products have a safety aspect, aimed at reducing Healthcare Associated Infections (HCAIs), Needlestick Injuries (NSIs) or maladministration of medication.
InterVene's products are of high quality manufacture and supplied at a price point to encourage integration. We aim to do everything possible to enable customers to adopt a blunt and forthright position against unsafe medical products. We encourage clinicians to INTERVENE...because safety doesn't happen by accident.
Utilising our significant in-house engineering experience in the healthcare sector, we design and produce high quality safety medical devices. Our structure ensures that the mouths we feed before our products reach customers are kept to a minimum, allowing us to deliver products at a price to compete in the healthcare industry. We acknowledge that this is a hugely important factor in the current economic climate.
InterVene's policy is to keep to a minimum costs associated with marketing and product promotions and thereby maintain very competitive prices for our customers. Our packaging is simple but effective and almost 100% recyclable.
Why the name InterVene®, you may ask? Well, as the company was formed to exploit the safety needle IP for which we had the distribution rights, it originally began as a pun on "In to Vein" but works on different levels. For example, the logo takes the "I" and the "V" from InterVene, which is an abbreviation for intravenous. It could also serve to represent the Roman numeral IV (four) - four common uses for a hypodermic needle (blood draw, intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection). Finally, intervention is what is required to make current practice safer.
There is a more serious message in the strap line, however. Safety doesn't happen by accident. HCAIs and NSIs are a real and significant problem for healthcare workers. It does take a lot of hard work and commitment to make the workplace a safe environment and products supplied by InterVene are designed to facilitate the work of those whose job it is to focus on safety. We would be delighted to hear from you via our Contact Us page if you are interested in learning more about the products in our range or, more important, if you have any suggestions for new products.
