ICE - In Case of Emergency 

In case an accident or medical emergency leaves you unable to communicate, how will Police, Fire or Ambulance personnel know who to contact?

Are you prepared?

ICE PhoneICE is an internationally recognized acronym used as a name in your cell phone contact list that police, fire and ambulance can use to reach the appropriate contact in case of emergency. If you are unable to communicate to first responders, your ICE contact could be a family member, a translator, a social worker, or any other person who can speak on your behalf.

For children, seniors and those without cell phones, wallet sized ICE cards are available free from all of Vancouver’s Community Policing Centres.  In case an accident or medical emergency leaves you unable to communicate, ICE will speak for you to first responders.

All residents should program an emergency contact into their cell phone or carry an ICE card in their wallet or backpack.

Add ICE to your cell phone now!  Come into the WECHCPC to pick up free ICEcards for you, your children and elderly relatives.
