About
Ronald McDonald House Parkville gives seriously ill children the best gift of all – their families. Our warm and supportive home-away-from-home provides the whole family with a comfortable place to stay while their child is undergoing treatment at the Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne.
Ronald McDonald House Parkville gives over 1,300 families every year the gift of being able to stay close to their sick children while being surrounded by a support network of caring staff and fellow families. Our House has 51 guest rooms of various sizes, including three fully self-contained isolation suites.
Conditions of Use
Keeping the family together can be extremely tough without support, which is why we offer accommodation for parents with seriously ill children who live both in regional Victoria and throughout Australia that need care at the Royal Children’s Hospital.
We try to accommodate the needs of families where we can, but this is always subject to availability. Priority is given to regional and interstate families whose children have been recently diagnosed, seriously injured or who require emergency treatment, as well as families of premature babies.
