Free Car Seat Safety Checks
Feb. 24 at the Chatham Co.
Health Dept.
Car seats are life sav
ers when used correctly, but
sometimes parents need a few
pointers. Be sure you’re using
the right car seat in the right
way at the Chatham County
Health Department’s free car
seat check event Friday, Febru
ary 24, from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m.
at the clinic at 1395 Eisenhow
er Drive.
According to Safe
Kids Worldwide, more than
half of car seats are not installed
or used correctly. At this event,
parents can find out if they’re
using the correct car seat for
their child’s age and size, if the
seat is installed properly, and
if the harness fits well. When
used correctly, child safety
seats can reduce the risk of
death from road injuries by as
much as 71 percent.
“Kids spend a lot of
time riding in cars, and child
safety seats have made car
travel so much safer,’’ said
Chatham County Health De
partment Nurse Manager, Dr.
Sierra Peebles. “But as our
kids grow and change, they
need different types of seats
installed in different ways. It’s
not easy to keep up, but that’s
how we can help.’’
The car seat safety
checks are the culmination of a
training event being sponsored
by the health department for
Child Passenger Safety Tech
nicians. Each technician must
complete a one-on-one child
safety seat inspection as part
of their certification.
“We’re hoping for
a great turnout at the car seat
safety check event so our
technicians can cement what
they’ve learned in training,’’
said Dr. Peebles. “The more
certified technicians we have
the greater impact we can
make on child safety, so this is
a win for us and for the com
munity.’’

tion about the event and about
car seat safety, please visit
