Adopting GS1 standards

Scan for Safety has prepared an Information Guide for Medical Device Suppliers to NHSScotland, which details the actions that suppliers would need to take to comply with the requirements of the Scan for Safety programme.

In addition, we have created a simple ‘ten step guide’ to assist medical device suppliers looking to adopt GS1 standards. This guide has been produced for NHS Suppliers across the four nations.

Information on National GS1 standards for Products (GTIN’s) can be located here.
