St. Luke’s Offers Free Car Seat Clinic
June 22, 2017

A child car seat could save your baby’s life in the case of an accident. But the seat’s effectiveness depends on its proper installation and use.

St. Luke’s will host a free car seat clinic from 12-3 pm on Tuesday, June 27th at St. Luke’s Allentown Campus, 1736 Hamilton St., Allentown.

Certified technicians will check your car seat to make sure it is optimally placed and secured in your vehicle. They will also demonstrate proper car seat use.

The clinic will be held on the Allentown hospital’s east parking lot. Walk-ins are welcome but appointments are encouraged.

Parents should bring their children’s car seats and instruction booklets and their car manuals – plus the child who uses each car seat.

To make an appointment or for more information, call 1-866-STLUKES.

When: 12-3pm on Tuesday, June 27th

Where: St. Luke’s Allentown Hospital’s east parking lot, 1736 Hamilton St., Allentown, 18104
