Emergency personnel are resourceful when it comes to saving lives. Did you know that paramedics often turn to a victim’s cell phone for clues to a person’s identity? When every second counts, you can make their job easier with one simple word-ICE.
ICE is an acronym for In Case of Emergency. Label an entry in the contacts list in your cell phone ICE. Include the name and phone number of the person that emergency services should call on your behalf. The few minutes it takes to add ICE to your cell phone could save your life.
Many paramedics know what ICE means and they look for it immediately. ICE your cell phone TODAY!
