We hope to be able to welcome you and your loved ones to our House. Please speak to your nurse or social worker for more information.

To be eligible to stay at the Orange County Ronald McDonald House:

  • Your child must be admitted to CHOC Children’s, UCI Medical Center, Fountain Valley Regional Hospital, CHOC at Mission, St. Joseph Hospital, Western Medical Center, Anaheim Memorial Hospital or Healthbridge. If your child is admitted to another hospital, please call us at 714-639-3600 for more information about eligibility and obtaining a referral.
  • The patient must be 18 years old or younger. Exceptions may be made if the patient is over the age of 18 but under the age of 21 and is being treated for a childhood illness.
  • No more than 4 people to a room, maximum. Because of our housing limitations, we are unable to provide a second room for families.
  • Any person who is under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult relative or legal guardian at all times while in the Orange County Ronald McDonald House.

Suggested donation:

We ask families for a room donation of $10 per night to help cover our expenses. We welcome donations from families who wish to contribute more than the room fee. However, no family is ever turned away due to inability to pay.
