An ICE number is a telephone number that is programmed into a mobile telephone, and labeled ICE, which when called by a firefighter, paramedic, emergency medical technician, rescue worker, or ambulance when the subscriber is nonresponsive or impaired, will connect to the person who the subscriber desires to be contacted in case of an emergency.
