THE HOUSE, WHICH ORIGINALLY OPENED IN 1988, HAS RELOCATED ITS RESIDENCE FACILITY ADJACENT TO THE CAMPUS OF WOLFSON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND NEMOURS CHILDREN'S CLINIC, THE AREA'S LEADING PEDIATRIC TERTIARY CARE PROVIDERS. COMPLETED IN NOVEMBER OF 2001, THE NEW HOUSE ACCOMMODATES 30 INDIVIDUAL FAMILIES (THREE TIMES THE NUMBER IN THE ORIGINAL BUILDING). ADDITIONALLY, THREE OTHER MEDICAL FACILITIES REGULARLY REFER FAMILIES TO THE HOUSE PROGRAM, SHANDS JACKSONVILLE, BROOKS REHABILITATION AND UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA PROTON THERAPY INSTITUTE. WITH ONLY FIVE PROTON FACILITIES IN THE COUNTRY TREATING CHILDREN, JACKSONVILLE IS SEEING CHILDREN COMING FROM AS FAR AWAY AS COLORADO, ILLINOIS, VIRGINIA AND EVEN ENGLAND, SCOTLAND AND NORWAY. THE HOUSE HAS ACCOMMODATED AS MANY AS TEN FAMILIES AT A TIME SEEKING THIS SIX-WEEK OUTPATIENT TREATMENT, AND THE TREND IS CONTINUING INTO 2011.THE THIRTY BEDROOM HOUSE INCLUDES FOUR SPECIALLY DESIGNED EASILY CLEANED UNITS FOR CHILDREN WITH CANCER AND OTHER COMPLEX CONDITIONS, A LARGE DOUBLE KITCHEN, DINING ROOM, LAUNDRY ROOMS, ACTIVITY AND PLAY ROOMS, A BUSINESS CENTER, EXERCISE ROOM, AND MUCH MORE. THERE ARE ALSO ROOMS FOR FAMILIES WHOSE CHILDREN, AS OUTPATIENTS, HAVE NEED FOR CONTINUED SUPPORT. A VAN DRIVEN BY STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS TAKES FAMILIES TO AND FROM THE HOSPITALS AND CLINICS AS NEEDED.SICK AND INJURED CHILDREN RESPOND TO HOSPITAL TREATMENT MUCH MORE READILY WHEN THEIR FAMILIES ARE NEARBY. THAT IS THE REASON FOR THE FIRST RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE 40 YEARS AGO AND IS STILL TRUE TODAY IN JACKSONVILLE. THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL FOR OFFERING TEMPORARY LODGING FOR OVER 29,500 OF THESE FAMILIES IN ITS TWENTY-TWO YEARS IN JACKSONVILLE. ON A REGULAR BASIS THE HOUSE OFFERS MANY VOLUNTEER-LED RECREATIONAL AND SUPPORTIVE PROGRAMS FOR OUR FAMILIES, INCLUDING ART AND PET THERAPY, MUSIC PROGRAMS, AND EVEN BINGO. THE JACKSONVILLE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE IS THE FIRST UNITED STATES HOUSE TO HAVE A FULL-TIME CERTIFIED ASSISTANCE DOG, NOW IN HER EIGHTH YEAR OF DAILY SUPPORT FOR THE FAMILIES.THE 42,000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING IN WHICH THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED IS MAINTAINED TO HIGH STANDARDS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE BOARD AND STAFF FACILITY MANAGER, WHO HAS BEEN ON STAFF MORE THAN 11 YEARS AND PROGRAM MANAGER ON STAFF MORE THAN 13 YEARS. VOLUNTEERS ASSIST STAFF AND PART-TIME HOUSEKEEPING IN A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO MAINTAIN THE ENTIRE HOUSE AS A SAFE, SECURE, AND CLEAN ENVIRONMENT FOR EVERYONE UTILIZING THIS SPECIAL HOME AWAY FROM HOME. A FEASIBILITY STUDY WAS ALSO COMPLETED TO CREATE A PLAN FOR EXPANSION ON THE EXISTING PROPERTY OF THE HOUSE. UP TO 16 ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS CAN BE ADDED WHEN NEEDED WITHOUT ADDITIONAL PROPERTY NEEDED.ANOTHER RMHC JACKSONVILLE CORE PROGRAM SINCE 1993 IS A RESOURCE FOR LOCAL FAMILIES INSIDE WOLFSON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL. IT IS CALLED THE RONALD MCDONALD FAMILY ROOM. RMHC JACKSONVILLE TRAINED VOLUNTEERS OFFER REFRESHMENTS, ACTIVITIES AND A LISTENING EAR RIGHT IN THE THIRD FLOOR WAITING ROOM THAT HAS BEEN ADAPTED FOR THIS SPECIAL LICENSED PROGRAM. SINCE MOVING IN 2008 FROM THE ONCOLOGY FLOOR TO A NEW SPACE NEXT TO THE PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT, USAGE OF THE PROGRAM HAS DOUBLED. THE RONALD MCDONALD FAMILY ROOM PROVIDES DAILY RESPITE FOR PARENTS, PATIENTS AND SIBLINGS AND IS LOCALLY FUNDED.RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES OF JACKSONVILLE (RMHC) PARTNERS WITH ST. VINCENT'S HEALTHCARE TO LICENSE ANOTHER CORE PROGRAM, THE RONALD MCDONALD CARE MOBILE, A MEDICAL VAN THAT PROVIDES PHYSICALS AND VACCINATIONS AT TARGETED FULL SERVICE SCHOOLS IN DUVAL COUNTY, FLORIDA, NOW IN ITS SIXTH YEAR OF OPERATION AS PART OF THE HOSPITAL'S MOBILE MINISTRY. IN 2010, RMHC JACKSONVILLE BEGAN ANOTHER GLOBAL PROGRAM TO EXPAND ITS MISSION, ESPECIALLY FOR LOCAL CHILDRENS HEALTHCARE ISSUES. WITH FUNDING FROM DONATIONS COLLECTED IN AREA MCDONALDS RESTAURANTS AND MATCHED BY GLOBAL RMHC, RMHC JACKSONVILLE GRANTED TWO LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS FUNDING, ONE FOR ART THERAPY AND ONE TO ASSIST LOCAL FAMILIES IN SIGNING UP THEIR CHILDREN FOR SUBSIDIZED HEALTH INSURANCE. THE GRANTS TOTALED $12,650.RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES OF JACKSONVILLE IS LICENSED BY MCDONALD'S TO USE THE BRAND NAME WHICH IS UNIVERSALLY RECOGNIZED. TODAY, THE MCDONALD'S CORPORATION CONTINUES TO PROVIDE OUR PROGRAMS WITH VALUABLE TRAINING AND NETWORK OPPORTUNITIES. HOWEVER, LIKE EVERY RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES CHAPTER, WE DEPEND ON OUR OWN COMMUNITY FOR THE MAJORITY OF ANNUAL FINANCIAL SUPPORT, FROM PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS, CORPORATE AND INDIVIDUAL GIFTS AND PLEDGES, AND IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS. ON AN ANNUAL BASIS, WE COUNT ON BOTH CASH AND IN-KIND GIFTS AS WELL AS FUNDRAISING EVENTS FOR REVENUES, AND WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE RECEIVED OVER $300,000 IN PROGRAM IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS ALONE FOR 2010!IN 2010, THE HOUSE PROGRAM SERVED MORE THAN 1,100 FAMILIES. THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY IS 7 DAYS, WITH NEARLY 40% OF FAMILIES STAYING JUST ONE NIGHT, BUT WITH MANY STAYING SIX TO TEN WEEKS. THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE IS THE ONLY PROGRAM HELPING THIS POPULATION OF FAMILIES IN NEED OF BEING CLOSE TO THE HOSPITAL WHILE THEIR CRITICALLY ILL OR INJURED CHILD IS BEING TREATED IN JACKSONVILLE. THE GOALS INCLUDE REDUCING THE STRESS FAMILIES ARE UNDER IN THIS SITUATION, PROVIDING SOME NORMALCY FOR THE FAMILY AND PROVIDING NEEDED RESOURCES AND REFERRALS. THERE IS A REQUESTED CONTRIBUTION OF $20 AT CHECK-IN AND WHEN FAMILIES CHECK OUT, THEY ARE ENCOURAGED TO HELP BY CONTRIBUTING $10 PER NIGHT. THIS PRACTICE HAS ALLOWED FAMILIES TO FEEL THEY ARE PART OF THE PROGRAM, NOT JUST TAKING A HANDOUT, BUT NO ONE IS EVER TURNED AWAY FOR INABILITY TO PAY. EVEN WHEN A FAMILY CAN MAKE A CONTRIBUTION, IT DOESN'T OFFSET THE $100 PER FAMILY IN EXPENSES PER NIGHT TO RUN THE PROGRAM. THEREFORE FUNDRAISING IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY IS COUNTED ON TO MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE.SOME 2010 STATISTICS FOR THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE PROGRAM IN JACKSONVILLE: - OVER 1900 VOLUNTEERS LOGGED 23,500 VOLUNTEER HOURS FOR A VALUE EQUAL TO 10 FULL TIME STAFF MEMBERS.- 70% OF THE FAMILIES WHO CAME TO OUR RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE LAST YEAR WERE FROM FLORIDA - FROM CITIES WHERE THEY COULDN'T RECEIVE THE SPECIALTY CARE JACKSONVILLE OFFERS. - 66% OF THE FAMILIES WHO STAYED OVERNIGHT INCLUDED THEIR CHILD PATIENT WITH THEM AT THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE. (UP FROM 44% IN 2000) THIS IS A TREND BASED ON BETTER TECHNOLOGY AND MANAGED CARE RESTRICTIONS ON HOSPITAL STAYS.- THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OFFERS TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE MEDICAL FACILITIES. VOLUNTEERS PROVIDE DINNER FOR THE FAMILIES EVERY NIGHT OF THE YEAR, AND DONATED ITEMS STOCK A PANTRY FOR SNACKS AND QUICK MEALS.EXIT SURVEY STATS - 100% RATED THAT SERVICES PROVIDED NEEDED MENTAL/PHYSICAL WELL-BEING FOR THE FAMILY UNIT. 90% RATED THAT STAYING AT THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE HIGHLY REDUCED STRESS. 98% OF FAMILIES INDICATED THAT SERVICES/BASIC NEEDS HELPED THEM DURING ENROLLMENT. VOLUNTEERS WHO MAKE UP A SPEAKERS' BUREAU FOR THE HOUSE SHARED THE STORY OF THE ORGANIZATION WITH ANOTHER 1194 PEOPLE IN 2010. 64 MEETINGS OF HEALTH RELATED SUPPORT GROUPS WERE HELD IN THE HOUSE'S COMMUNITY MEETING ROOM, WHICH IS ALSO USED DAILY FOR FAMILY AND VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES. 290 PLANNED ACTIVITIES WERE SCHEDULED FOR THE HOUSE FAMILIES WITH MORE THAN 1,430 PEOPLE PARTICIPATING. MANY MORE IMPROMPTU VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES HAPPEN ON A REGULAR BASIS.RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES OF JACKSONVILLE HAS A STABLE LONG TERM AND LOYAL STAFF AND VOLUNTEER TEAM AS WELL AS AN ACTIVE, INVOLVED BOARD OF DIRECTORS, ALL OF WHOM HAVE A COMMITMENT TO THE MISSION OF SERVING THE FAMILIES WITH SICK AND INJURED CHILDREN.
