ICE Campaign

"In Case of Emergency"

We all carry our mobile phones with

names & numbers stored in its memory

but nobody, other than ourselves,

knows which of these numbers belong

to our closest family or friends.

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 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 of

a contact person or persons who should

be contacted during emergency under the name "ICE" ( In Case Of Emergency).

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 be able to quickly contact the

right 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 by

storing an ICE number in our Mobile

phones today!
