: 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. The concept of ICE is a method of contact during emergency situations. Store the number of a contact person or persons who should be contacted during emergency under the name ICE (In Case Of Emergency). 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. Be sure it's in : your kid's cell phones also. : The Indpls Star EDUCATION FAIR - Sat.
