We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memorybut nobody, other than ourselves, knows which of these numbers belong to our closest family or friends.
If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending us would have our mobile phone but wouldn't know who to call.Yes, there are hundreds of numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency?
Hence this "ICE" (In Case of Emergency)CampaignThe concept of "ICE" is catching on quickly. It is a method of contactduring emergency situations.
As cell phones are carried by the majority of the population, all you need to do is store the number of a contact personor persons who should be contacted during emergency under the name "ICE" (In Case Of Emergency).
The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he went to thescenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but they didn't know which number to call.
He therefore thought that it wouldbe a good idea if there was a nationally recognized name for this purpose.In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital Staffwould be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialing thenumber you have stored as "ICE.
"For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc. Agreat idea that will make a difference!Let's spread the concept of ICE by storing an ICE number in our Mobilephones today!
Please forward this. It won't take too many "forwards" before everybodywill know about this. It really could save your life, or put a loved one'smind at rest .
ICE will speak for you when you are not able to.
