CELL PHONES DURING EMERGENCY

Subject: ICE
We all carry our mobile phones with hundreds of names/ numbers stored in its memory but who, other than ourselves, knows which of these numbers belong to our near and dear ones? If we are involved in an accident or have a heart attack and the people attending us get hold of our mobile phone, they won't now which number to call to inform our family members. Yes, there are many numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency? For this reason, we must have one or more telephone numbers stored under the name ICE (In case of Emergency) in our mobile phones. Recently, the concept of "ICE" is catching up quickly. It is simple, an important method of contact during emergency situations. 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 then be able to quickly contact your next of kin, by simply dialing the number stored as "ICE".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
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! Pleaseforward to all your nearest and dearest.
