Ronald McDonald House Toronto opened the first Ronald McDonald Family Room in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) in early 2012, at the Credit Valley Site of The Credit Valley Hospital (CVH) and Trillium Health Centre in Mississauga, Ontario.
Open from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week, it features a cozy lounge space, kitchenette, four Sleeping Rooms, and a bathroom with shower facilities --- all steps away from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in the Erin Mills Regional Women’s and Children’s Health Centre.
Nestled in more than 900 square feet of space, the Ronald McDonald Family Room at the Credit Valley Hospital is open to parents, siblings and extended family members of infants receiving care in the NICU, and draws on a pool of more than 40 volunteers who provide support to families to help them heal better together.
