Outdoor emergency gear: ICE ID bracelet Posted on 10 April 2011 In case of emergency identification bracelet In Case of Emergency (ICE) is a convention that enables first responders, such as paramedics, fire fighters and police officers, to identify victims and contact their next of kin to obtain important medical information. You’re encouraged to enter emergency contacts in your mobile phone under the name ‘ICE’ and responders are trained to search for them. A simple ICE contact would look something like this: ‘ICE 1 Brother’, followed by a contact number. Alternatively, you can list multiple emergency contacts as ‘ICE1’, ‘ICE2’ and so on. ICE ID takes it a few steps further. It’s not always practical to carry cellphones when walking, hiking, cycling or surfing. The ICE ID bracelet is visible on your arm or ankle and has all your vital information available to the caregiver. Prices available at www.iceid.co.za. Register on the website and use the discount code ‘GETAWAY’ to receive a 10 per cent discount on your entire order.
