Free Car Seat Check

Is your car seat installed correctly?

Schneider Children’s Hospital offers free car seat installation checks.  Our Community outreach Department and Neonatal Unit RNs are certified through the NHTSA (National highway and traffic administration) for car seat installations.  We provide this free service to the community along with the support of the Nassau County Safe Kids Coalition.  Parents are asked to bring along the child, the seat, the vehicles owners manual and instructions for use of the child safety seat.
