Very interesting data just released showing the huge impact of #EAP services in Australia and New Zealand. This research was performed by the Employee Assistance Professional Association of Australasia, and sponsored by leading EAP providers, including Tacklit customers. In 2023, over 1.1 million people benefitted from human-powered support, representing 16.4% of employees covered, with 92% of customers satisfied with services received. The report also highlights that human-to-human support delivers the most effective outcomes. At Tacklit we could not agree more! We work tirelessly to deliver technology capability that amplifies human impact, rather than replace it. Here is to all EAP professionals out there who deliver an invaluable service on the mental health frontline!

We are pleased to share that, together with the Australian Association of Psychologists Inc (AAPi), Allied Health Professions Australia, and other leading organisations, Tacklit has signed up as a founding member of the CSIRO's Sparked AU initiative, to drive interconnectivity of health information across the Australian ecosystem. Tacklit's purpose is to enable proactive, personalised and outcome driven mental health care, and we therefore fully support interconnectivity standards. Because patients have enough on their plate focusing on getting better, and should not have to worry about disjointed systems and data. #patientexperience #mentalhealth #digitalhealth #fhir

Congratulations to Professor Shantha Wilson Rajaratnam, Jane Burns, and all others involved in the establishment of Australia’s first National Centre for Workplace Mental Health and Wellbeing. This much needed initiative is now a reality with WorkSafe Victoria’s foundational investment, and with 40 other organisations giving an in-principle commitment of over $50million. Shantha, Jane, Monash Psychological Sciences, and the Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health have been Tacklit friends and supporters from the beginning, and we wish them all the success with this initiative!

A call out to our partners at HELM and Caraniche for the successful launch of their Power2Change digital gambling program 🙌 🎉 With so much media attention on the known harms of gambling, HELM has remained focused on developing an evidence based structured counselling program that builds insight into gambling behaviour, addresses factors that contribute to excessive gambling, and builds motivation to change - handing people back control of their lives. Using digital activities to augment delivery - both in session and outside - showcases the potential for highly engaging, highly effective interventions.   Tacklit is proud to be the technology partner supporting this innovative work. Congratulations to Jacinta Pollard, Anne-Maree Szauer (GAICD), Amanda Mechanic, Sophie Aitken, Rosalind H., Melanie Bretillard, Chris Parr, Alana Johnston, Lauren Giarrusso and all those involved in bringing this to life! #gambling #mentalhealth #onlinegambling #gamblingharm #harmreduction

A recent paper in The Lancet Psychiatry provides peer-reviewed evidence of something our mental healthcare service provider customers are finding in the frontline. If deployed correctly, technology can amplify the efficiency and reach of mental health interventions, without sacrificing effectiveness. As explained in the summary published by Helen Dodd in André Tomlin's great mental health blog, digitally augmented CBT for child anxiety has achieved comparable outcomes, while only consuming 59% of therapist time, if compared to treatment as usual.

A massive congratulations to the team at Orygen for the publication of this landmark report in The Lancet. The findings are shocking but not surprising for those on the frontline, and strong action is needed. “It is now accepted that mental ill-health is the primary threat to the health, wellbeing and productivity of young people, but while it accounts for 45 per cent of disease globally in those aged 10 to 24 years – only 2 per cent of global health budgets are allocated to addressing it.” Tacklit is proud to be the technology partner of so many care organisations delivering on many aspects of the models-of-care recommended in the report.

Part of the answer is for clinical leaders to build and grow their own practices into platforms, serving their community with aligned values towards therapists and patients. A major obstacle to this is access to world class, affordable technology to amplify clinical capability. This is the obstacle our team is working to remove. Thanks Steve Duke for a great article on a critical issue.
