RMHC Alberta supports families seeking vital medical treatment for their sick or injured child. Over 65% of Canadians live outside of a city centre with a hospital, and must travel long distances for medical reasons. Our Houses in Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, and Medicine Hat provide a home-away-from-home for families, while allowing them the gift of staying together during one of life's most difficult times. RMHC Alberta saves families approximately $6.5 million a year on expenses related accommodation, transportation, meals, laundry, parking, and so much more. Having a Ronald McDonald House close to the hospital is an important part of family-centred care.
