SPECIAL PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT:
The Federal Road Safety Commission has just
come out with the concept of “ICE".. Please read carefully, it may save your life or that of someone you know.
We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memory. If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending to 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 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 for this purpose. In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital staff would be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialling the number you have stored as 'ICE'.
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.
For more than one contact name simply enter
ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc.
PASS THIS AROUND TO MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE AND THIS CAN HELP IN AN EMERGENCY".
