He said that maybe the hospital will do it, but he has never known a first responder to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-813272 Tue, 28 May 2013 13:07:59 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 813272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had never heard about this, but I like it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-813271 Tue, 28 May 2013 13:07:32 +0000 ladyfingers 813271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: I have actually heard not to put stuff like mom, dad, husband etc. because if you lose your phone, it's information a scammer can use to scam your loved ones! In other words, if you have a smartphone, they know who to text/email for money a la "hey mom I was mugged in Italy, please wire $5,000." </p> <p>@sunny: That's a really good idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-813264 Tue, 28 May 2013 13:04:06 +0000 regberadaisy 813264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting!<br /> <a href="http://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/injuries-emergencies/Pages/Is-There-ICE-in-Your-Cell-Phone.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/injuries-emergencies/Pages/Is-There-ICE-in-Your-Cell-Phone.aspx</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791878 Fri, 17 May 2013 15:24:01 +0000 spaniellove 791878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: There are ICE apps that you can use to create a wallpaper with the number for your lock screen, unless there's another way I don't know about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791711 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:15:58 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 791711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phone has a setting for it - so if something happened it could be looked up, but it also has his name in red. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791705 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:13:45 +0000 purrpletulips 791705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I had it set up on my old phone (could be used with the "emergency call" feature when my phone was locked) but when I got my new phone there is actually an indication for ICE on the phone screen (whether phone is locked or not). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791701 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:12:05 +0000 Chillybear 791701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at first I thought RICE - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation</p> <p>makes sense though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791689 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:08:26 +0000 SAHM0811 791689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know about it, but don't use it. </p> <p>I figure someone would go to my favorites and dial my husband first because he's listed at the top with both cell and work numbers.

I've heard of it, but up until a couple months ago there was a passcode on my phone and no one would be able to access it anyways. Right now it has DH's name with a &lt;3 next to it, so hopefully if anyone say my favorites that's the one they'd go with. Or "mom" or "dad". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791590 Fri, 17 May 2013 13:48:28 +0000 MrsTiz 791590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't do this, but i'd heard to always make sure people that would need to be called in an emergency are easily accessible.</p> <p>So my mom is Mother, dad is Dad, etc.</p> <p>That way they're not scrolling through trying to find my parents and don't know their names to look for them that way </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-about-ice#post-791587 Fri, 17 May 2013 13:48:06 +0000 Caly 791587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH &amp; I have both had it in our phones for years.
