HERE PARENTS AND CHILDREN LEAD A LIFE AS NORMAL AS POSSIBLE DURING THEIR TRAUMATIC TIMES WITHOUT THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF COSTLY HOTEL, MEAL, AND TRAVEL EXPENSE. TO QUALIFY, THE FAMILY MUST HAVE A PEDIATRIC PATIENT 18 OR UNDER BEING TREATED AT A LOCAL HOSPITAL. SEVEN OF THE 32 BEDROOMS ARE SPECIALLY EQUIPPED TO SERVE TRANSPLANT PATIENTS. THESE PATIENTS STAY AT THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE FOR AN AVERAGE OF 100 DAYS FOLLOWING A TRANSPLANT. NINE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-EIGHT FAMILIES STAYED AT THE HOUSE IN 2018. OVER THE LAST THREE YEARS, ON AVERAGE, WE HAVE HAD TO TURN AWAY 400 FAMILIES YEARLY. SINCE THE HOUSE'S OPENING, FAMILIES FROM ALL FIFTY STATES AND FOURTEEN FOREIGN COUNTRIES HAVE STAYED. GENERALLY, THE HOUSE SERVES 94-96% FROM SC. IN 2018, THE PRIMARY DIAGNOSIS BY PATIENT WERE AS FOLLOWS: 29% HEART, 11% PREMATURE, 11% CANCER, 9% NEURO, 7% RESPIRATORY AND REMAINDER SPREAD OVER A LARGE VARIETY OF CATEGORIES.NO OTHER ORGANIZATION PROVIDES A COMPARABLE RESIDENCE ALTERNATIVE FOR FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN RECEIVING CRITICAL CARE AT NEARBY CHARLESTON HOSPITALS. CHARLESTON AREA HOTELS AND RESORTS CAN BE EXPENSIVE AND MANY ARE SIMPLY BEYOND THE BUDGET OF YOUNG FAMILIES. IN MOST CASES, FAMILIES WILL PASS THEIR TIME IN HOSPITAL WAITING ROOMS WHERE THERE ARE NO PRIVATE SPACES, SHOWERS, LAUNDRIES, OR OTHER CONVENIENCES OF HOME. OTHERS MUST TRAVEL HOURS TO ARRIVE IN CHARLESTON ONLY TO LEAVE AGAIN THE SAME EVENING OR NEXT DAY. RMHCC PROVIDES MORE THAN JUST A PLACE TO SLEEP. IT IS TRULY A HOME, WHERE FAMILIES CAN SUPPORT EACH OTHER DURING THEIR MOST TRYING TIMES. THE FRIENDSHIPS MADE AT RMHCC HELP THE FAMILIES SUSTAIN THE HARDSHIPS, WORRY AND FEARS.
