Family lodging | Children's Hospital | UC Davis Health

Ronald McDonald House is a "home away from home" for families who must travel at least 30 miles to seek medical treatment for their child. The Sacramento Ronald McDonald House is a 38-room facility. Family members have their own bedrooms and bathrooms and share common kitchens, living and laundry facilities.

Guests come to the Ronald McDonald House through a referral system. About three to five days before a family is due to arrive, the family will receive a call from the social worker's or doctor's office to confirm their stay if a room is available. For more information, please call 916-734-4230.

Pediatric patients and their families, who often travel long distances to receive treatment, may be eligible for low-cost lodging near the hospital in the Kiwanis Family House.
