Safe Ride Program
Families whose infants are born or receive care at Swedish may purchase a car seat on a sliding scale, based on their ability to pay. These are convertible car seats that hold children from 5 to 50 pounds. We do not sell infant carriers.
*Please Note: as of Monday, January 16, 2012, the price of the car seat available in the Safe Ride Program will change to $50.00 per seat. This is a change from the sliding scale pricing previously. This program is available for previous and current patients of Swedish Medical Center. One seat per child, per family.
