Emergency Contacts bypassing Silent Mode

Is there a way, on the Blackberry Priv that a certain contact or contacts can bypass Silent Mode to ring on the phone?

OK.......

So, go into your contacts and select one.
When it open up, you'll see a hollow star in the upper right of the contact pic.
Tap it
It will now be a solid star.

Go into settings...

Sounds & Notifications....hit Interuptions.

Under Priority Interuptions.....ensure the calls tab is on.

Below this is ....Calls/messages from

Tap it and select from Starred contacts only.

All done.

I've finally started taking the time to examine priority mode myself. One thing to note is when you Star a contact and allow them to still come through when priority is on, only calls and sms will make a sound, BBM will be silent and I assume other comm apps will too
