To further clarify: you might preface your mum's number with ice (ICE mother) in your contacts and the Emergency Services will know that's the best person to contact.

OK but...but.... what if youre friends with vanilla ice but he's not really that close a friend. He's gonna be a bit confused when the paramedics ring him up to say youve had a dizzy turn in wal mart

Quite a good idea imo.
