Emergency Call Button on Lock SCreen

I see this is an old thread and I happened to find it searching for information about the "Emergency Call" button. I just got my first iPhone, a 4S, on Friday. I have had an iPod Touch 4 and iPad 2 for a while but they lack the "Emergency Call" feature so my question never came up before. Is there a way to make ICE contacts available when the phone is locked under iOS 5? I can see this as a useful new feature to the "Contacts" app if there was a way to mark certain entries as "emergency contact" which would then make them, and only them, available for browsing and calling from the lock screen.

There are over a dozen apps in the iTunes app store dealing with ICE. Search the store using "in case of emergency" as a search term. Search for ICE asnd you have to weed out all the ice cream apps.

n2jtx - Your idea is the right solution. I'm amazed that Apple has not implemented it.

If you listed emergency contacts (mother, etc). Those numbers come up as well. Trust me, my 1yr old has called my mom in the middle of the night from a fingerprint:password protected screen
