About
Our Adelaide House gives seriously ill children the best gift of all – their families. Our warm and supportive home-away-from-home provides both the whole family with a comfortable place to stay and peace of mind, knowing they can stay together and close to the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
Ronald McDonald House Adelaide is spread across two sites directly opposite each other. The main House sleeps up to ten families in single room accommodation. Our second building is an apartment-style facility containing ten two – bedroom self-contained units, best suited to families staying with us for longer periods of time.
Conditions of Use
Keeping the family together can be extremely tough without support, which is why we offer accommodation for parents and families with seriously ill children. Our House also supports mothers going through high risk pregnancies.
We try to accommodate the needs of families where we can, but this is always subject to availability. Priority is given to regional families whose children have been recently diagnosed, seriously injured or who require emergency treatment, as well as families of premature babies.
To stay with us the first time, you’ll need an initial referral from your local doctor, specialist, social worker or patient travel office. For subsequent visits, you can enquire with us directly.
