Sept. 3, 2009 bag lady | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Player emergency data form Your right, there are several great ways to record your medical information, be it a medical card, a sheet of paper, a c/d and even a memory stick, the problem STILL is there is no consistancy, are your teammates looking for a card, c/d, memory stick or sheet of paper, and again, WHERE is it located in your gear bag? The kit lets players put their information and meds in the same place, together. There should be no guessing what you are looking for, or where to find it during this critical time. If there is a RED MEDICAL DOG TAG attached to a zipper then you should be looking for the RED BAG! A couple of weeks ago I got a call from the Tournament Director (Nate) from down South, and he told me about a player that went down on the field (James Washington)and he said that some of his teammates thought James carried Nitro, but unfortunately no one was able to find it and nobody was really sure if he did carry Nitro. I'm not saying that this kit will save your life, but why not put everything together so that your teammates, in an emergency, can get you the help you need, and contact those who care? Deepest Condolences to the Washington family and friends. |
Sept. 3, 2009 bag lady | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Player emergency data form I would like to introduce myself, my name is Kathy Bussey, I started a business that addresses this need- TAG YOUR BAGS, Emergency Tags For Your Sports Bag. I've been at a few major tournaments here in Northern California and introduced my product. It is a kit that contains (1)red bag, (2)red medical dog tag--engraved with your name and instructions to "look inside for the red bag",(3)emergency cards and (4)caribiner. Everyone carries their emergency information, if it's in their wallet or just in their bag, the problem is locating that information. My solution is to put an emergency card, along with any medicine that would be needed immediately, in case of emergency, into the red bag, and store the red bag in your gear bag. On the front of your gear bag you attach the red medical dog tag onto the zipper pull where you have stored the red bad (again the tag has been personalized, and instructs a good samaritian to "look inside for the red bag") then in an emergency someone going to your gear bag will notice the medical dog tag, see your name and then proceed to find the red bag. What I've discovered is: there isn't a universal system! TAG YOUR BAGS can be universal and easily recognized, it can travel from your leagues to tournaments, and to any association. Several players and umpires here in Northern California have TAG YOU BAGS attached to their gear bags, if you would like to get more information please contact me at tagyourbags@comcast.net Our Motto is "HELP ME-HELP YOU! |
