For Western Australian families with sick or injured kids requiring medical treatment in Perth, RMHC WA provides quality supported accommodation 24/7, 365 days a year through the Ronald McDonald House Program.
Close to the medical facilities of Perth Children’s Hospital and King Edward Memorial Hospital, our Ronald McDonald House Nedlands is a state-of-the-art, purpose built home. With 47 invitingly furnished guest rooms and fantastic on-site facilities, we help make the lives of families just that little bit easier.
Located on Level 5 of Perth Children’s Hospital, this 14 bedroom House has the closest access to the ward for parents, carers and guardians of critically ill patients.
Accommodation in this House is allocated by Perth Children’s Hospital to parents, carers and guardians of critically unwell and palliative patients, Royal Flying Doctor Service unplanned admissions, transplant patients and breastfeeding mothers of sick babies.
RMHC WA aims to service every WA family who requires our support. To aid increased demand for supported accommodation, we have partnered with local accommodation providers within close proximity to Perth Children’s Hospital, to offer alternate accommodation solutions for WA families when our Ronald McDonald Houses are at capacity.
Our primary goal is to provide safe and reliable short and long-term accommodation for regional families who have to travel away from their homes for their child to receive medical treatment at Perth Children’s Hospital or at King Edward Memorial Hospital.
We understand that being away from home for long periods of time can put families under financial pressure. That’s why our accommodation is free for eligible families with sick or injured kids.
While our policy is to provide free accommodation, your stay at the House may require you to claim financial support towards accommodation and travel from the relevant government transport assistance scheme. Our friendly team are happy to work with you to apply for the relevant financial support.
To find out if you’re eligible for government financial assistance, contact your hospital social worker or talk to one of our team.
