A Place of Respite — for local and traveling families
The Ronald McDonald Family Room provides a caring environment inside Renown Children’s Hospital where families of hospitalized babies and children can rest and gather strength while remaining steps from the child’s room. The Family Room also features a sound-proof sleep room for parents when situations are critical and do not allow for a parent to leave the hospital for extended periods of time.
The room is on the fourth floor of Renown Children’s Hospital at the entrance to the Pediatric/PICU units and is Monday-Friday from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. The sleep room is available by appointment.
