ICE
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 the 'ICE' (In Case of
Emergency) Campaign. 
All you need to do is store the number of the person who should
be contacted during an emergency under the name 'ICE' ( In Case
Of Emergency).
For more than one contact simply
enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc.
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 no-one knew which number to call. He thought it
would be a good idea to have 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 dialling the number you have stored as 'ICE.'
A great idea that
will make a difference!
