Concept of "ICE".

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 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)
Campaign

The concept of "ICE"
is catching on quickly.
It is a method of contact
during 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 person
or 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 the scenes
of accidents,
there were always
mobile phones with patients,
but they didn't know
which number to call.
He therefore thought
that it would be a good
idea if there was a nationally recognized name for
this purpose.
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."

For more than one
contact name simply
enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc.
A great idea that will make a difference!

Let's spread the concept
of ICE by storing
an ICE number in our
Mobile phones today!

Please forward this.
It won't take too many
"forwards" before everybody
will know about this
It really could save your life,
or put a loved one's mind at rest .

Remember:-
ICE will speak for you
.
