Families are eligible to stay at the Ronald McDonald House if they have a child under the age of 21 who is a patient at Riley Hospital for Children, Indiana University Hospital, Methodist Hospital or any other Indianapolis-area hospital. The child may be either an in-patient or an out-patient who must stay close to the hospital because of their treatment schedule.
The Ronald McDonald House is located just a few blocks west of both Riley Hospital for Children and the Indiana University Hospital on the IUPUI campus. A free shuttle is available to and from Riley, IU and Methodist hospitals.
To make arrangements to stay at the Ronald McDonald House, families can either call the House directly or may be referred by a hospital staff person. After receiving referral information, the family is placed on the House's waiting list. Due to the high demand for rooms and the fact that hospital discharge dates are uncertain, families are placed on our waiting list in the order in which the referral was received.
Families are asked to pay $10.00 per night to help cover the cost of providing the room. Families that are unable to pay the donation may have reduced fees based on their financial circumstances. In addition, families must pay a refundable key deposit fee ($3.00 for one key/$5.00 for two keys) upon check-in.
