PUT YOUR PHONE ON ICE!!!

who can we call when we cant.jpg 

 

ICE stands for In Case of Emergency.  This number should dial the person in your family that can respond to medical decisions if you are injured or incapacitated. If you are in an accident, paramedics know to check your phone for your emergency contact information.

Imagine taking a look and trying to figure out who to call out of the twenty or more numbers on your phone. By adding a contact entry that’s designated as an emergency contact number, you can make their job much easier and possibly save your own life.  So program an ICE entry on your cell phone today, as a matter of fact, pull it out right now as you’re reading this article. You should have ICE programmed on your phone, whether you have a standard cell phone plan, or a prepaid cell phone; regardless of how long you plan to keep your phone – do it now! If you have more than one person the paramedics can contact in case of an emergency, you can add additional ICE numbers to your list. Your primary contact should be listed under ICE, and then you can add the other contacts under ICE1, ICE2, ICE3, etc.
Vargas & Vargas Insurance has a few additional suggestions. Make sure…

  • …the person whose name and number you are using has agreed to be your ICE contact and has a list of people to contact on your behalf, including your place of employment.
  • …to always include every phone number for that individual – home, work and cell.
  • … Your ICE contact knows about any medical conditions, medications you are taking that could affect your emergency treatment. For example, any allergies or current medications.
  • … Always include written emergency contact and medical information elsewhere as a back-up safety precaution.

Please tell your friends and family to ICE their phones too! Share this post to spread the word and potentially save a life!

And contact Vargas & Vargas Insurance for an of your auto insurance, home insurance, business insurance, Life insurance or Tax services.
