ICE" in your CELL PHONE

ICE" in your CELL PHONE

 Reminder to store "ICE" in your cell phone
 A recent article from the Toronto Star,
 "the ICE idea", is catching on and it is a
 very simple, yet important method of
 contact for you or a loved one in case of
 an emergency. As cell phones are carried
 by the majority of the population, all you
 need to do is program the number of a
 contact person or persons and store the
 name as "ICE".

 The idea was thought up by a paramedic
 who found that when they went to the
 scenes of accidents, there were always
Mobile phones with patients, but they
 didn't know which numbers to call. He
 therefore thought that it would be a
 good idea if there was a nationally
recognized name to file "next of kin"
 under.

 Following a disaster in London The East
 Anglian Ambulance Service has launched
 a national "In case of Emergency (ICE)"
 campaign. The idea is that you store the
word "ICE " in your mobile phone address
 book, and with it enter the number of the
 person you would want to be contacted
 "In Case of Emergency ".
>
> In an emergency situation, Emergency
 Services personnel and hospital staff would
 then be able to quickly contact your next of
 kin, by simply dialing the number programmed
> under "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, ICE3 etc.

A great idea that could make a difference
