In a training that I did last night, I presented the class participants with I.C.E stickers and the handout that Safety Trainers has to go along with them.
One individual said to me "I heard about that before but I didn't believe it was real"
Since that was not the first time something like that has been said to me it really got me thinking......
I need to let people know about this program.
The I.C.E. sticker is a way to show lay and professional rescuers that you have listed the In Case of Emergency contact in your mobile device.
In the event that something happens to YOU how can we identify who you are and if there is medical information that we should know about to better help YOU.
If you ever got an email about this or read it in a magazine, medical professionals( EMT's, Paramedics, Police and Fire Fighters) are trained to take a look at your phone for this sticker to identify an established emergency communications protocol. This started in the UK and has now traveled into the US.
Do you travel overseas for business?
This is spreading as a world-wide campaign!
