Apparently this is a standard procedure all paramedics
follow at the scene of an accident when they come across
your cell phone.

ICE - 'In Case of Emergency'
We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers
stored in its memory but nobody, other than ourselves,
knows which of these numbers belong to our closest family
or friends.
If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken
ill, the people attending us would have our mobile phone
but wouldn't know who to call. Yes, there are hundreds
of numbers stored but which one is the contact person in
case of an emergency? Hence this 'ICE' (In Case of
Emergency) Campaign. The concept of 'ICE' is catching on quickly. It is
a method of contact during emergency situations. As
cell(mobile) phones are carried by the majority of the
population, all you need to do is store the number of a
contact person or persons who should be contacted during
emergency under the name 'ICE' (In Case Of
Emergency). The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that
when he 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 f
or this purpose. In an emergency situation, Emergency
Service personnel and hospital Staff would be able to
quickly contact the right person by simply dialing the
number you have stored as 'ICE.' For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2
and ICE3 etc. A great idea that will make a difference!
Let's spread the concept of ICE by storing an ICE
number in our Mobile phones today!

Please forward this . It won't take too many
'forwards' before everybody will know about this.
It really could save your life, or put a loved one's
mind at rest. ICE will speak for you when you are not
able to.
