    I.C.E = In Case of an Emergency

    Thought I would pass this along. Seems like a great idea!

    As seen in the Washington Post:

    ICE ADVICE

    Make sure the person whose name and number you are giving has agreed to be your ICE partner

    Make sure your ICE partner has a list of people they should contact on your behalf – including your place of work

    Make sure your ICE partner’s number is one that’s easy to contact, for example a home number could be useless in an emergency if the person works full time

    Make sure your ICE partner knows about any medical conditions that could affect your emergency treatment – for example allergies or current medication

    Make sure if you are Under 18, your ICE partner is either your mother or father or an immediate member of your family authorised to make decisions on your behalf – for example if you need a life or death operation
