Special needs: What if my child has special health care needs? Children with special health problems may need other restraint systems. Talk about this with your pediatrician. Easter Seals, Inc. has car safety seat programs for children with special health care needs. More information is available from Easter Seals, Inc at 800/221-6827. You also can learn more about transporting children with special needs by calling the Automotive Safety Program at 317/274-2977 or by visiting its Web site at www.preventinjury.org. Also see the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Web site at http://www.aap.org/family/SpecialCarSeatsChart.pdf. (Note: the Spelcast Car Seat - for children with Hip-Spica casts - and the Snug Seat Car Bed referenced in the AAP's chart are no longer manufactured.) Source: American Academy of Pediatrics |
