Our own brand of Security and Medical Emergency tags for lost and/or injured horses, riders , cyclists, motorcyclists, runners, elderly people, dog walkers, disabled people, diabetics, allergy sufferers, the list goes on!
A Locata is designed to help you and your horse to be cared for should either of you have an accident or be taken ill whilst out on your own. Whether you are participating in solo sports and other leisure activities such as walking or motorcycling, a Locata on you can help save your life.
It can also by used/adapted for people with learning disabilities as well as stroke victims who may have problems with their speech such as dysphasia and who may not be able to communicate properly. It contains vital medical information and first aid instructions personal to you that helps people who find you as well as the paramedics when they arrive on the scene.
I had one on my elderly Mother, she had 2 TIA's over the years, I recognised the signs through my own care work and St John ambulance work experience. I quickly got her to A & E and so MUCH time was saved due to the fact that all her medications, allergies and medical history was instantly available to the doctors and nurses via the Locata who could then adjust her meds accordingly and give her the life saving treatment she needed to avert a full stroke. My Father had a stroke and suffered from Dysphasia, it was what inspired me to make Locatas to be worn by people to help them when needed as I had already designed and was making Horse Locatas by then (2007), so the Rider Locata was the next step (2010).
Rolling forward to the present day, I think this virus has made it even more important to carry first aid and medical details and shows us all how vulnerable we have become. It also has made me very aware that we rely on technology far too much. I stopped making Locatas 2 years ago for a variety of reasons but one of the main ones was, with the ever increasing use of mobile phones and apps, people were simply using their phones to locate them in an emergency as well as having all their details loaded on to the phone. Ok, I accept that that is good and an easy way to deal with an emergency. NOW rethink the scene, you come off your horse and are laying injured and unable to move with a possible broken neck (possibly paralysing you if you were moved) and breathing difficulties (possible broken ribs that could rupture/piece a lung if you were moved). The horse has galloped off but has been injured too and is wandering. Someone finds the horse but the phone you carry is with you, they have no idea your horse is possibly on medication and needs specialist treatment as no details for the horse, they are not horsey people and don't know what to do, they may not even realise the horse is injured.
You in the meantime are still laying badly injured, someone finds you and hasn't got any first aid training, they remove your hat/helmet and move you, remember you have a serious neck injury and breathing difficulties their innocent, well meaning but untrained actions have just possibly seriously increased your injuries to critical. You are somewhere off the beaten track, it's a dog walker who found you, they have found your phone on you but it got smashed in the fall and their battery is flat on their phone. NOW that's when the Locatas come in to their own. In the Rider Locata not only would it advise NOT to have removed your hat/helmet or move you but it carries basic first aid instructions and would have all your important details in it. As I said, we rely on technology too much, transmitters can be down, batteries can be flat, computers can crash, signals of all kinds can be bad or non existent............ food for thought
Use your mobile to track and help you but don't rely on that alone.
New design Rider Locata that attaches to your upper arm comes with new updated covid information and a PPE face mask inside.
All Locatas have a reflective strip on the front that reflects headlights up to 1000 yards at night and in low light situations.
I also make a Rug Locata to go on the front of horse's rugs incase a horse escapes from it's field, day or night, it helps, especially at night if the horse gets on to a road, the reflectors help warn on coming traffic. Ask for details.
