This week on AdChat, we sit down with Allison Nikula — occupational therapist turned tech entrepreneur and the founder of CareApp, a nationally awarded platform transforming how aged care feels across Australia.

What began as a single photo to reassure a family member became a human-tech solution now used in over 130 care organisations.

Hosted by Melinda Parent, Founder and Creative Director of Oranje Creative, and co-hosted by Creative Partner Teresa Robinson, this episode explores Allison’s bold leap from healthcare into the startup world, the quiet power of empathy-led inno-vation, and how she’s challenging the culture of care — one beautifully connected moment at a time.

Tune in to hear how Allison is reshaping aged care, redefining leadership, and showing that when tech is built with heart, it can change lives.
