WomenEntrepreneur.com Tells CARES StoryPassion and persistence are the hallmarks of great entrepreneurs, and these qualities are available to all of us no matter our age. Louise Stoll was 59 when she went to the airport in 1999 to pick up her daughter. When Louise saw her daughter Miriam waddling off the plane seven months pregnant, a toddler on her hip, a diaper bag over one shoulder and carrying a 20-pound car seat, she knew there had to be a better way. So Louise sketched a belt and buckle restraint that she thought would work on a plane in place of a car seat. Her journey had begun. |

CARES Available at Adaptivemall.com, a Leading Website for Equipment for Children with Special NeedsBurlington, VT (October 9, 2009) - In a breakthrough decision, the CARES device was recently approved by the FAA for older children with special needs who are over the 44 pound original limit. These parents can file a request with the FAA to use the CARES, and once they have this “exemption” need not reapply for future flights. This development not only allows families with special needs children to travel more freely, but it provides those children with much needed added protection during flights. To date, more than 45,000 CARES have been sold worldwide. The multi-award-winning child aviation seatbelt is now available at www.adaptivemall.com, a leading website for equipment for children with special needs. |
Older Kids With Special Needs Can Use CARESThe FAA has granted permission for a child with special needs who exceeds the current weight and height limits to use CARES. This permission was granted for use in seats, such as the bulkhead, in which there is not a passenger seated directly behind the CARES user. Children with special needs who are within the certified height and weight guidelines have always had the option to use CARES but this new development means many more children with special needs have a safe and easy alternative for flying. |
