What sets Ian and DAM apart from other compliance consultants
How the right support can turn something daunting into something doable
HEALTH AND SAFETY DOESN'T HAVE TO FEEL LIKE A TELLING OFF
Let’s be honest. When most people think of a health and safety assessment, they don’t exactly feel relaxed. Whether it’s worry about missing something, fear of judgment, or just the sheer overwhelm of the unknown, it’s the kind of task that often gets pushed further and further down the list.
That’s exactly why DAM exists. To take the pressure off and bring some calm, clarity, and confidence back into compliance. We’re not here to make anyone feel small. We’re here to support the brilliant work you’re already doing and help you keep your people, patients, and premises protected.
We like to say, we’re the good guys of health and safety. And Ian? He’s the person you’ll want by your side when you’re ready to stop putting it off and start getting things sorted.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF ASSESSOR
Ian Kirsop has spent over two decades helping businesses navigate compliance, but his real skill lies in making something complicated feel manageable. He knows the dental and medical world inside out, and he’s helped everyone from single-chair practices to national healthcare providers make sense of their responsibilities.
Yes, he’s got a clipboard. But no, he’s not here to catch you out.
There’s no patronising tone. No jargon-filled reports. No sky-is-falling panic. Just a straightforward process, built to suit your setting, explained clearly and carried out with complete respect for your time and team.
REAL PARTNERSHIP, NOT A PAPER EXERCISE
One of the biggest myths we like to dispel is that health and safety is just a box-ticking exercise. Something you do once and hope never to deal with again.
But the truth is, when you’ve got the right partner, staying compliant becomes far less stressful. It becomes part of the way you operate, rather than something you scramble to fix when an inspection rolls around.
Ian doesn’t just walk in, point out problems, and leave. He gets to know how your clinic works. He listens. He explains what needs attention and helps you prioritise it in a way that fits your team and workload. You’ll get practical advice, tailored support, and clear guidance you can actually use. No drama. No judgement. Just everything you need to feel in control.
A CALM, CLEAR AND CONFIDENT APPROACH
One of the things our clients say most often after their assessment is: “That wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought.”
That’s music to our ears.
Because we know it’s easy to put this stuff off. To feel like there’s too much to do or too many unknowns. But we promise, once you’ve had Ian in, you’ll wonder why you waited so long.
You’ll come away with a full understanding of where things stand. You’ll know what’s already working well and what needs adjusting. And most importantly, you’ll feel confident that your practice is heading in the right direction.
FROM CHECKLIST TO CONFIDENCE
Our traffic light grading system makes it easy to see exactly how your practice is performing across each area of compliance. No guesswork, no grey areas. Just a visual, simple summary that shows where you’re green, where you’re amber, and where action is needed to move things forward.
And because Ian has been instrumental in shaping how assessments are carried out across the industry, you’re not just getting a service — you’re getting leadership-level insight from someone who really knows the score.
He doesn’t just follow the rules. He helps define them.
SO, WHAT'S STOPPING YOU?
If you’ve been putting off your next assessment, or you’re feeling unsure about whether your clinic is where it needs to be, let’s make it easier. Let’s make it feel doable. Let’s get it off your plate.
No judgement. No scare tactics. Just a proper plan, a friendly expert, and the confidence that comes from knowing you’re in safe hands.
Get in touch today and book a chat with Ian. You’ll be surprised how much lighter everything feels when you’ve got the right partner on board.
Because when it comes to health and safety, you deserve more than just a tick in a box.
You deserve someone who gives a DAM.
