Victor's Blog about the Web, Security and Life

The web for me is a hobby where standards and best practices are daily bread. Security is a concern that everybody must be aware of its details for IT in general, and the web in particular, to be a safer place. My life, on the other hand, is that of a regular Lebanese citizen where politics and social issues are discussed on a daily basis. I hope you enjoy reading my blog and make sure to drop me a comment about any topic you find interesting.

Red Cross I.C.E. Contacts

Red Cross members have noticed that, frequently, accidents involve people holding mobile phones. In all of these cases, especially when people are under critical conditions, Red Cross members do not know who to contact from the phone list (contacts) within the phone. As such, Red Cross members have come up with the idea to ask everyone to put the person to contact in Case of Emergency under a certain synonym: ICE (In Case of Emergency).

To help Red Cross members better serve you in case of emergencies, put the person that you wish to be contacted under the name ICE. If you have wish to provide more than one phone number, you can use the names ICE1, ICE2, ICE3, etc.

This is very easily done and helps better save lots of lives especially when accidents involve people with special treatment required. This also helps Red Cross members communicate better to better serve you.
