CELLPHONE EMERGENCY CONTACT INFO

[miltie]

I received this in my email today and it sounds like a very good idea to program into your phone. I decided to make this a sticky so it didn't get lost halfway down the board.

*********************************************************

FYI:
Paramedics will turn to a victim's cell phone for clues to that person's
identity. You can make their job much easier with a simple idea that they
are trying to get everyone to adopt: ICE.
ICE stands for In Case of Emergency. If you add an entry in the contacts
list in your cell phone under ICE, with the name and phone no. of the person
that the emergency services should call on your behalf, you can save them a
lot of time and have your loved ones contacted quickly. It only takes a few
moments of your time to do.
Paramedics know what ICE means and they look for it immediately. ICE your
cell phone NOW!
Please pass this one along!

Thanks, Miltie. That IS a good idea, and I encouraged my daughter to do the same thing.

Wonderful idea Miltie. I will be doing this on my cellphone too.

My kids schools insist on a ICE patch on coats and bookbags for the kids never thought about my cell though.
