Our doors are open to eligible families 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our Family Room is staffed by our volunteers and Program Coordinator, Monday to Friday between 8:30am and 4:30pm.
Visiting the Family Room
Take a break and be together as a family at the Ronald McDonald Family Room at Wodonga Hospital.
Our Ronald McDonald Family Room is a refuge for you and your family while visiting or staying with a child in hospital. Step away from the ward and into our inviting, purpose-built Family Room. You’ll find a fully-equipped kitchen stocked with essential items and emergency meals, a large family bathroom and complimentary laundry amenities.
Relax and socialise with other families and enjoy home-prepared meals in our spacious lounge and dining area, or retreat to our quiet room for some much-needed peace and privacy. Our Family Room has a relaxing outdoor deck for a breath of fresh air and a courtyard playground for the kids to play.
Our Team
Our Ronald McDonald Family Room is run by a dedicated team of volunteers, all under the leadership of our Family Room Program Coordinator, Karen Trenchard.
Our two overnight emergency accommodation rooms are available to families with a child in the Special Care Nursery, with approval from the medical staff.
Eligibility
We want to make sure families have a home-away-from-home inside the Hospital, away from the clinical environment of the ward. That’s why our Family Room is free and open to all families whose children are undergoing treatment at the Wodonga Albury Health children’s wards.

Fees
Ronald McDonald Family Rooms are free of charge. Thanks to generous donations, families have a space away from the wards to recoup and simply be together.
