Ronald McDonald Family Rooms
Cosy and comforting with a home-like atmosphere, the Family Room is a communal place for a quiet break from the ward for parents, caregivers and siblings of patients. Families are free to have a drink, grab a bite or simply take a moment to rest, watch TV or utilise the free WIFI access provided.
Each family room has seating areas to read, dine or watch television, as well as a comfortable corner to take a short nap. There is also a pantry equipped with a fridge, microwave oven and water dispenser, with a variety of snacks and beverages provided.
National University Hospital
On 6 January 2016, Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Singapore, with the support of the Paediatric Cluster at the National University Hospital (NUH), opened the doors of its new Ronald McDonald Family Room at the hospital. Established as part of NUH’s renovation and expansion plan for its PICU ward, the Ronald McDonald Family Room is a strategic partnership between the National University Hospital and RMHC Singapore, and reflects a shared vision that both organisations are advocating for – to enhance the quality of support and care for seriously ill children and their families in Singapore.  The Family Room can accommodate up to 28 persons at any one time. Aside to resting, there are also shower facilities, with clean towels and toiletries provided. The room is open 24 hours, daily.
An additional Ronald McDonald Family Room located within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Ward at National University Hospital opened on 13 September 2022. The newest lounge is fitted with 2 lactation rooms, where mothers will also be able to pump and deliver breastmilk to their child with more comfort and convenience.
