When your child is in the hospital, it can be hard to go home. Ronald McDonald Family Rooms provide a place of comfort for families with children at CHEO.
Our two Ronald McDonald Family Rooms extend the services we provide at our House to families who have a child receiving treatment at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. The Family Room on 5W is the perfect spot to catch up with visiting friends and relatives. We encourage you to stop by — our volunteers will extend their warm hospitality and do their best to make your stay at the hospital as comfortable as possible.
If you have used the Family Rooms and enjoyed the space, we’d love to hear from you. Sharing your story is the perfect opportunity to give our amazing volunteers a pat on the back. Please email your story to Brianne: brianne@rmhottawa.com
