In case you didn't know, ICE is an acronym that stands for "In Case of Emergency." This is an acronym that medics have been starting to look for in the address books of accident victims' cell phones to find the contact information for the person or persons who would make medical decisions for the victim. In addition to entering the contact information of these people under the acronym ICE, medics also suggest that you indicate any special medical conditions or allergies you may have or medications that you use.
Taking a few minutes to enter your ICE numbers into your cell phone might save your life and will ensure that no time is wasted when paramedics are trying to determine who to contact if you are in an accident and are unconscious or unresponsive. Entering these numbers is easy and free, so why not do it right now? If you get into an accident, you never know how this simple action might impact your outcome, so please don't hesitate in taking this precautionary step today.
