I hope and pray that none of you will need to have this information handy but I thought to be on the safe side I would share I tip that I got from someone or some show, probably Law and Order SVU! Love that show!!!
One of my friends got a new iPhone for her birthday. She had to manually enter all of her phone numbers because her sim card was old and was not compatible for the iPhone. I told her that I didn’t know where I had heard this but instead of putting your husband’s name in your contact list to actually use the word “husband cell” and “husband work”. So many times we have an enormous amount of contacts and if you were ever in an accident and were not able to tell the police officers your husbands name this is a quick and easy way for them to find the information to contact someone for you. I know this sounds so simple simon but I had never thought about that, how would they know if Tom, Dick or Harry is your husband’s name?
Another suggestion would be to enter “emergency contact” if you are a single parent. If you have children with a cell phone, make sure they enter “mom” or “dad” into their contacts.
I hope this tip helps and maybe it worth sharing with your friends and family, you just never know…
