Specially developed in collaboration with people on the spectrum for people on the spectrum, ICE4Autism stores and communicates YOUR unique sensitivities and special needs

 

The ICE4Autism mobile app conveniently and intuitively stores vital information about you and your unique needs, sensitivities and behaviors directly on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. Simply launch the ICE4Autism mobile app and first responders, ER doctors, nurses and administrators have immediate access to the critical the information needed to treat you properly while helping to reduce what is sure to be a heightened level of anxiety.

 

Emergency situations are challenging for everyone. But add in sensory, communication and behavioral challenges, and an emergency can turn into a disaster for a person with Autism*. First responders, ER doctors and nurses may lack a sufficient understanding of autism leading them to misinterpret autism-related responses. They may not know how to communicate with or otherwise help an autistic person* cope with painful or scary procedures.

 

ICE4Autism helps you to help them get you better!

Special Instructions

 

The Special Instructions widget is the place for you to tell first responders whatever YOU decide is most important!

 

It may be that you are particularly noise sensitive, have an unusually high pain threshold, or that you are non-verbal and use your iPad to communicate; it may be that just because you nod your head does not necessarily mean you understand or that you are particularly frightened of needles; or it may be a request that they answer your phone if it rings, because it's probably your worried mom, dad, husband or wife wanting to make sure you are OK.

ICE Audio - ICE4Autism can speak for you or your loved one

 

If you or your loved one is non-verbal or incapacitated due to injury, the simple press of a button plays YOUR pre-recorded message including the most important information about YOU, your sensitivities, unique behaviors and anything else YOU decide is vital to your care.
