ICE = In Case of Emergency
Accidents happen and an ICE Card may just save your life.
ICE Card
- If you have been involved in a major accident and have suffered significant trauma, the golden hour, just 60 minutes, will determine whether you will live or die.
- Emergency services need to access critical information about you, your health care needs and your next of kin.
- Adding ICE contacts to your phone is pointless and will waste time that you may not have.
Complete, download, print and place your ICE Card next to your primary ID in your wallet or purse today.
ICE File
TellThem4Me® wants everyone to start thinking and talking about what happens if things go wrong.
- If your affairs are not in order, your loved ones will struggle to make decisions on your behalf for a time when you can’t.
- Recording essential and important information in your ICE File provides a mini version of a full membership and includes the most important information from All About Me, My Family, My Health Care, My Insurance, My Estate and My Wishes
