As goofy as the title sounds I really thought that this should go in the Health & Fitness section. ICE your cell phone! Apparently the idea of using your cell phone to aid EMS personal has been around a while and this idea (I.C.E. In Case of Emergency) is currently being used in over 40 countries! (Thanks to all Brits ) Please check out the site to learn how a simple entry in your address book could help save your life or the life of someone you love. Hopefully, we won't have any threads entitled: "ICE saved my life!" Narc
Very nice. My co-worker recently purchased a cellphone and it had a built in ICE which is the first contact on the contact list.
I have no doubt that cell phone companies will add it to their plans but the great thing is, you can do it yourself! I have my wife as my ICE contact. All EMS has to do is check my contacts and they will see: ICE-WIFE (no comments now)
This idea was in the media over in the UK last year. Apparently a emergency worker checked a mobile (Cellphone) & suggested the idea.
According to what I have read, it appears that someone brainy person in the UK came up w/ this. Again, thanks to my U.K. mates...
ICE ICE BABY!!! Couldn't help it Narc, had to be done. I have ICE-1, -2, and -3 since sometimes people are out and about. Thus I have my wife's cell as well as the home phone. The last one is my in-laws incase all else fails. I know silly safety geek here, but it does pay to have back-up. It's the military/ex-cop thing in me.
