Topic: I.C.E. In Case of Emergency | |
---|---|
This just came to my attention, in an email from a friend.
Apparently the standard procedure for paramedics at the scene is to examine a victim's cell phone for an I.C.E. number. If you have more than one person whom is an emergency contact, then you would have their numbers listed as I.C.E.1, I.C.E.2, such as one for your personal physician and one for your spouse, and so forth. This enables emergency personnel to know at a glance whom to contact, rather than going thru the dozens or hundreds of numbers in your phone. I do not know if this procedure is for real, or if it is somebody's attempt to make it a reality. Anyone? |

It is real. I got a call from my brothers phone from police when he had a wreck and was taken to the hospital because he had me listed that way.
I have ICE but...nobody to call. Anyone? |

Anyone? i have seen this else where listed as 911 numbers so i listed mine as 911 (or something that looks like a 1) and they list first in phonebook not sure if it is actually a fact they will use them but better to have and not need than need and not have |
