Is your child's safety seat properly installed?

Did you know that 73 percent of child passenger restraints are used incorrectly? Safe Kids Campbell County provides our community with free car seat checks by appointment, safety seat events, bike rodeos and much more to help educate our children. At CCH Emergency Medical Services, there are nine nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians on staff who can perform free car seat checks.

From May 2016 to April 2017, 142 child safety seat inspections were done, and nearly 3,200 people attended child passenger education, which includes bike safety, child passenger safety, home safety, infant safety and poison control.

Car seat and child safety seat inspections are held on Wednesdays by appointment at the Emergency Medical Services Base, 502 Stocktrail Avenue. Appointment required. Call 307-688-SAFE (7233) to schedule. Replacement car seats are available for a $30 contribution.
