A Graduate Student working towards his degree in bio-engineering came on board to draw some rough sketches and help us out. Boy did he ever. Our concept with all its specifications really came to life

It needed to be easily adjustable to accommodate children of various sizes…

It needed to be able to go from sitting up to lying flat very quickly, in case we needed to perform CPR

 

…and close completely for out of the way storage

About the Author

medtek911

I trained as an EMT in NY, than recertified in Atlanta. I loved being an EMT and was involved with it for several years. I worked on the “Rainbow Response Unit” at Egleston’s Children’s Hospital in Atlanta, and when not on a call, worked in the PICU and NICU, which was both a blessing as well as a heartache because I learned and saw so much. As my love for children has been a lifetime commitment, I firmly believe that if a child’s health is already compromised, I refuse to sit back and watch them be put in even more danger. My goal is and always has been to protect…and to be the voice for those who can’t protect themselves. Suzanne (medtek911) is a member of the PedSafe Team
