Safety and Injury Prevention

Car Seat Checks

Join us for a free car seat safety check with certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians! Families are educated on the proper way to install a car seat in their car; ensure their child is properly restrained in the car seat, booster seat or seat belt; and learn about general road safety. All parents and families with kids of any age are welcome

We offer weekly checks on Tuesdays at our Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center, monthly checks in Federal Way, and four car seat checks yearly in Seattle.
