ICE Campaign
"In Case of Emergency"
We all carry our mobile phones withnames & numbers stored in its memorybut nobody, other than ourselves,knows which of these numbers belongto our closest family or friends.
If we were to be involved in an accidentor were taken ill, the people attendingus would have our mobile phone butwouldn't know who to call. Yes, thereare hundreds of numbers stored butwhich one is the contact person in caseof 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 cell phones are carried by the majority of the population,all you need to do is store the number ofa contact person or persons who shouldbe contacted during emergency under the name "ICE" ( In Case Of Emergency).
The idea was thought up by a paramedicwho found that when he went to thescenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but theydidn't know which number to call. He therefore thought that it would be agood idea if there was a nationally recognized name for this purpose.In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital Staffwould be able to quickly contact theright person by simply dialing the number you have stored as "ICE."
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 bystoring an ICE number in our Mobilephones today!
