It is our mission that your child travel safe and be secured correctly in an appropriate child safety seat. Schertz EMS employs two full time Child Passenger Safety Seat Technicians to inspect your child's seat once it is installed. Our Child Safety Seat Technicians are certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. They have undergone a minimum of 40 hours of initial training and are required to go through extensive retraining in order to stay current with the ever-changing styles of seats.
We ask that you have removed the child safety seat from its original packaging and have made your best attempt at installing the seat prior to coming in for an inspection. Our technicians will assist you in making any necessary changes to the installation during the inspection. These inspections are done by appointment only and appointments can be made by calling the Schertz EMS Community Health Department at 210-619-1430.
Schertz EMS does not have any child safety seats available for distribution. More information on seat distribution and education programs can be obtained by calling SafeRiders through the Texas Department of State Health Services at 1-800-252-8255.
