ICE SCAN

Here at SLEAFORD WHEELERS CYCLING CLUB, we understand that feeling safe on your bike is very important. Incidents can happen, and if they do, it’s vital that the emergency services are able to identify you and access your medical records, quickly and securely, and that they can locate you quickly.  

In Case of Emergency (ICE-scan) ensures this is possible. Developed in association with senior clinicians, paramedics and emergency services, the ICE-scan QR tag utilises technology linked to a secure database containing information entered and verified by you.

The app is partnered with ‘What3Words’ to use the location finder which is invaluable in pinpointing your location ensuring the emergency services can get to you quickly in the event of an accident. Acknowledged by the College of Paramedics and Association of Ambulance Chief Executives and with 40% off to SWCC members, get yourself protected for less with a one off payment of £14.40 for a pack of five ICE-scan tags, as opposed to £24.00 full price.

How does ICE-scan work?

When paramedics or first on scene spot the ICE-scan tag with its ‘Blue Star of Life’ logo, they can remove its protective security layer to reveal your QR code.

They can then scan this using the ICE-scan app or camera on their mobile device to reveal your medical and contact information.

ICE-scan has also incorporated What3Words location finder GPS technology into the app which will direct emergency services to your exact location.
