On Wednesday, American Medical Response (AMR) unveiled two specialized ambulances for the young patients of Women and Children's Hospital of Buffalo.

The ambulances, which are covered from bumper to bumper with vibrant graphics detailing the hospital's upcoming move to the John R. Oishei Children's Hospital, are designed specifically for infants and children.

The ambulances can transport patients as young as two-weeks old.  The sleek new ambulances are also the first of AMR's fleet to feature a ceiling mounted DVD player to help make young patients feel at ease.

The move is expected to be completed by November of 2017.
