In Case of Emergency

We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memory but nobody, other than ourselves, knows which of these numbers belong to our closest family or friends.

If you were involved in an accident or taken ill, EMS personnel would have your mobile phone but wouldn’t know who to call.  You have a ton of numbers stored on your phone but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency?  Also, your friends and family may have important medical information about you, which could save time and your life.

Now, there is a new Universal method to help EMS contact your loved ones, its called I.C.E. (In Case of Emergency).

The concept was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he went to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but they didn’t know which number to call. Thus, the concept of I.C.E. was born.

In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital Staff would be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialing the number you have stored as “ICE.”  The concept of “ICE” is catching on and EMS personnel will be taught to look for itl.

All you need to do is store the number of a contact person or persons who should be contacted during emergency under the name “ICE” ( In Case Of Emergency).  For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc.

It’s a great idea that will make a difference! Spread the concept of ICE by storing an ICE number in your Mobile phone.  ICE will speak for you when you Can’t.
