In Case of Emergency (I.C.E.) Document
An I.C.E. document is a summary of your medical history. This is important for a number of reasons:
• When you change to a new primary care physician
• When you visit a specialist (including your dentist)
• When you call 911 to show the EMT responders
• When you are admitted to an Emergency Room
