Ferrari Mailing List: NFC - but important ---> ICE

[Ferrarisimo [at] Comcast.net (Ferrarisimo]

They recently started a publicity campaign here in South Florida, and  
it made me think to post it to my various web groups.

This is something my friends and family have been doing for years, as  
a result of an article I had read in an EMT magazine.

You should, right now, add a contact to your cell phone under the name  
ICE - "In Case of Emergency."  Put in the contact information of the  
person or persons that you would want contacted should you be in an  
accident that renders you unable to speak or otherwise provide your  
own medical direction.

Make sure that person has pertinent information about your medical  
history, medications, and medical directives (and care of your animals).

Now-a-days, everyone carries a cell phone and for the past few years  
EMTs have been trained to look to the phone and check for ICE  
information when confronted with a non-responsive patient.

This can save your life.
