The Gilletts have been leaders in general and specialist medical care for decades. Emily's father, Rob Gillett, served Australian communities as an Occupational Health Physician for more than 30 years.
Emily and her sisters followed in their Dad's footsteps - Emily earned a Bachelor of Science in nursing and graduate diploma in Occupational Medicine, and she spent nearly 20 years overseeing health and safety operations for companies across Australia.
But it was actually Emily's Grandmother, Osra, who truly inspired The CareSide.
As the matriarch of the Gillett family, Osra was a strong and independent woman late into her 90s. At the age of 98, she started needing assistance, so Emily and her family explored their options.

Gareth spent many years optimising technology and streamlining processes for major corporations, including KPMG, PwC, ANZ, and medical institutions such as new Hospitals.
The bureaucratic grind of those positions made it difficult to accomplish anything with any sort of efficiency, and eventually, Gareth had his ‘Aha!' moment: he realised he could use his technological prowess to make a bigger impact through his own venture.
Unique skill set in tow, Gareth began searching for entrepreneurial opportunities at exactly the same time Australian healthcare began shifting to a consumer-directed model.
As serendipity would have it, Gareth's wife, Emily, had an extensive healthcare background - not to mention, her own poor experiences with home care providers that she didn't want anyone else to endure.
Gareth began building.
Using the same program that powers tech giants such as Uber and Netflix, Gareth created the framework (and 600,000 lines of code) necessary to launch The CareSide. That technology not only drives the company, its massive scalability and propensity to streamline processes allows The CareSide to pass substantial savings down to care recipients and their families.
