Hancock Regional Hospital’s car seat program will be holding a car seat clinic at the Hancock County Community Night on July 25 from 4:30-8:30 p.m. at the fairgrounds.

he event will be staffed by several certified child passenger safety technicians that will check seats and children for correct fit and installation. They can also advise parents/caregivers on appropriate seat purchases, when to move a

child to a booster, and when a child no longer needs a booster.

Motor vehicle accidents are a leading cause of death and injury to children and studies show that three out of four seats are used incorrectly. The event will also have seats to give to children in need that meet financial guidelines.
