ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
What does it take to build a digital platform that empowers older Australians and people with disability to choose their own support workers? In this episode, Coral speaks with Emma Clark, CFO and COO of Attain Healthtech, about the evolution of Mable and HomeMade, two platforms reshaping how care is delivered across Australia.
As Support at Home rolls out, digital platforms like Mable are stepping into a newly defined regulatory space. Emma explains what this means for providers, support workers, and consumers, and how Mable is adapting to meet new obligations around worker screening, training, and incident reporting.
Coral and Emma also explore the impact of these platforms in rural and remote communities, where access to care has long been a challenge and where local partnerships are now creating real economic and social change.
In this episode:
- The personal story behind Mable’s founding
- Why choice, control, and continuity matter in home care
- The impact of the new Aged Care Act on digital platforms
- The three provider categories under Support at Home
- What obligations digital labour platforms now carry
