Sometimes you have to shout the good news from the rooftops.
So here goes:
Sway recently hit #3 on Apple’s Top Downloaded Free Medical Apps chart.
But here's what makes that ranking even more fun. It's baseline season, and while Sway has been climbing the charts, we've been hearing from Athletic Trainers about just how much easier they're finding concussion baseline testing.
In fact, one AT recently texted us completely out of the blue:
“Hey, it’s Gini Fite up at Smithville High School in Missouri. Finally got all my fall athletes baseline tested. That was so easy!!! Wish I could have convinced my athletic director sooner!”
That's the kind of message we love getting.
And Gini isn't alone.
In three recent conversations with Athletic Trainers, we heard essentially the same story: baseline testing doesn't have to take weeks.
Because Sway is mobile, Athletic Trainers can have multiple athletes complete baseline testing simultaneously rather than pulling athletes aside one at a time or scheduling groups around a computer lab. Sway says its baseline process can be completed in roughly 20 minutes while an AT monitors athletes' progress from the dashboard.
One Athletic Trainer featured in our recent video described being able to get athletes through the process together and summed up the difference in six words:
“We just do it in one day.”
And she's not the only one saying that.
Troy Little, Head Athletic Trainer at Aledo ISD, has said his favorite part of Sway is baseline testing because his program can test the entire school in one day. Christina Turner at the University of South Carolina has also described testing an entire team simultaneously as the only feasible approach given their staffing.
Those experiences help explain why Sway is now trusted by 8,000+ Athletic Trainers and 5,000+ organizations, according to Sway's current website.
So yeah, we're going to enjoy that #3 for a minute.
But we're even happier about what helped put us there: Athletic Trainers getting their fall baselines done and realizing this really can be easier.
