SOMA is an all-in-one digital platform designed to streamline every aspect of care management—from medication administration (eMAR) and incident reporting to rostering, finances, and outcomes tracking. 

Why Built Internally: Existing commercial systems were fragmented, outdated, and didn’t reflect the real-world workflows of Omega’s children’s residential and supported living services. SOMA was built in-house to ensure flexibility, data accuracy, and a unified digital ecosystem across Omega Life.

Purpose & Industry Impact: SOMA will enable care providers to deliver safer, more efficient, and fully compliant services by integrating live data, AI-driven analytics, and reporting. It aims to set a new industry standard for digital care operations—improving transparency, staff performance, and young people’s outcomes.
