Global Ageing Interview – Sue Thomson

Global Ageing Interview – Sue Thomson

Our next Global Ageing interview as part of the Global Older People’s Care & Support Day 2024 is from Australia, with Sue Thomson, CEO of McLean Care, Australia.

The interview highlights the global challenge of limited healthcare access in remote areas, similar to issues faced in places like Scotland. Their solution, IH Health, provides virtual clinical services to older adults in isolated regions of Australia, including First Nations communities, significantly reducing hospital admissions.

Despite success, funding remains a key barrier, with a push for government support to sustain and expand the service. Future plans include international expansion, particularly in the Asia Pacific, though differing healthcare systems present challenges that require ongoing dialogue and cooperation.
