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 mobile phones are carried by the
majority of the population, all you need do is store the
number of a contact person or persons who should be
contacted during emergency under the name "ICE"
|
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 did not know which number to call. He
therefore thought it would be a good idea if there was a
nationally recognised name of this purpose. In an
emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and
hospital staff would be able to quickly contact the
right person by simply dialling the number stored as "ICE"
|
It really could save your
life, or put a loved one's mind at rest. For more than one
contact, simply enter ICE1, ICE2, ICE3
etc.
