ICE (In Case of = Emergency)

We all carry our mobile phones with hundreds of names/numbers = stored in 
its memory but yet nobody, other than ourselves knows which of = these numbers belong to our near and dear ones?

In case we are involved in an accident or had a heart attack = (GOD FORBID) and the people attending us get hold of our mobile phone but = don't know which number to call to inform our family members. Yes, there = are many numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of = an emergency? For
this reason, we must have one or more telephone numbers stored = under the name ICE (In case of Emergency) in our mobile phones.

Recently, the concept of "ICE" is catching up = quickly. It is simple, an important method of contact during emergency situations. As = cell phones are carried by majority of the population, just store the number of = a contact person or person who should be contacted at during emergency as ICE" (meaning In Case of Emergency).

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 number to call. He therefore thought = that it would be a good idea if there was a nationally recognized name for = this purpose.

Following a disaster in London , the East Anglican Ambulance Service has launched a national "In case of Emergency (ICE)" campaign.  In an emergency situation, Emergency Service = personnel and hospital staff would then be able to quickly contact your next = of kin, by simply dialing the number stored as "ICE".

Please forward this. It won't take too many = "forwards" before every body 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 and ICE3 etc.

A great idea that will make a difference!
