Family Room Logo

The Ronald McDonald Family Room at Diamond Children’s Medical Center is an extension of the services Ronald McDonald House of Southern Arizona provides. The Family Room serves all pediatric in-patient families at the Diamond Children’s Medical Center. It is a special place within the hospital, near the intensive care units, where families can relax and “getaway” while still being close to their child. The role of the Family Room volunteer is to staff the Room, uphold all Family Room and hospital policies and be supportive to the families who use the Room. The Volunteer’s part is crucial to maintaining the friendly, caring atmosphere of the Family Room.
