Nunawading Swimming Club
Started using CareMonkey: June 2014
Modules used: Emergency Contacts and Medical details
Kirsty Veliades, Nunawading's Squad and Club Coordinator talked to us about why CareMonkey works for them.
"It made sense to give the coaches immediate up to date medical and contact information for their athletes without having to print and carry private information"
Why did you start using
CareMonkey?
Our CEO’s
son's football club uses CareMonkey and suggested that it would be an easier
option than paper medical forms for the amount of trips we do each year.
With the
club also training at various locations every day and with the majority of
parents not staying to watch, it made sense to give the coaches immediate up to
date medical and contact information for their athletes without having to print
and carry private information.
What do the club administrators like
most about the system?
Administrators love that it is easy to use
and change as needed. We have kids constantly changing groups and different
trips going away with different carers and it’s quick and easy for us to
add/delete people and give or take away access.
Who are the main users
of the system at your club?
Each swimming member is required to have an up to date
CareMonkey profile so the relevant coaches/staff can access their information
as needed.
Coaches and 2 admin staff have day to day access for their
own groups. Team managers and coaches have access to selected swimmers for
the duration of trips and camps they are on.
How did you get members to activate their profile?
It is a requirement for all club swimming members to have an
active CareMonkey profile.
We used the CareMonkey system to send each swimmer in the squad system an email
invitation to sign up, along with information on why we were implementing
the system and how it would be used.
Each month we check the CareMonkey system to resend requests as needed and to add any new members.
The coaches also pass information onto swimmers requesting
they sign up.
How have the swimming
coaches received the system? Are they using the CareMonkey App?
Coaches have all been positive about the system as it gives
them much greater security if something happens at training and they need to
contact parents quickly. It also means they are aware of any medical
information that had not been passed on previously.
All coaches have been asked to download the CareMonkey app
onto their phones.
"The CareMonkey system has been great and really easy to
learn."

Swimming parents all have one thing in common – they want the best for their children. Your child’s swimming experience should be an enjoyable one, which builds confidence and self-esteem.It is important for coaches and parents to be in regular contact regarding the swimmer's progress. All coaches are available to talk with parents – this could be an informal chat following training or you may prefer to contact the coach by phone or email or arrange a suitable meeting time.
