Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oregon & Southwest Washington

     The Following Criteria Must Be Met:



• Patients over 18 and caregiver(s) must pass regular screening criteria.
• Rooms can accommodate a maximum of 6 people.
• Every guest family member (including patient) must pass a health screening to ensure that they are symptom-free.
• Guests (if over 18) must sign "Stay Agreement" prior to check-in.
• The family can function independently in our community living environments.


Please share the following:


  • RMHC staff will reach out to answer any questions within a week prior to arrival about the House if a reservation is secured.

  • All adult guests (18 and older) must present a picture form of identification upon arrival to the House.

  • For the safety of our guests, all adults are screened against the National Sex Offender Registry.

  • All families are placed “first come, first served”. Diagnosis does not change the status of a family on the waitlist. 

  • Screening criteria apply to all adults (including patients) that are 18 or older and who will be staying at Ronald McDonald House (RMHC).

  • Referral questions must be answered by or on behalf of all adults age 18 and older who will or may stay at RMHC within the next year.

  • If one adult in the household does not qualify, it may disqualify the entire family from staying. Contact Staff at 541-318-4950 or bend.house@rmhcoregon.org

  • Referrer must report any change in status that could be inconsistent with these criteria to RMHC. A family may be asked to leave if any criteria become a concern.


1. Is the patient age 21 or younger? OR Is the patient unborn & scheduled for delivery within two weeks? (Requires a fetal therapy letter from provider, scanned and sent to  bend.house@rmhcoregon.org)

2. Are you a parent under the age of 18? (All parents under age 18 must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. In certain cases, an adult relative over the age of 25 may substitute.)

3. Is the patient diagnosis contagious? Depending on the isolation protocols, the family may not be eligible to stay due to the diagnosis. Please reach out the house for further information. 

If any answers below are “yes”, or, if parental or domestic abuse is suspected in the patient’s injury or illness, do not refer the family to stay at RMHC* and please notify our staff at 541-318-4950 or bend.house@rmhcoregon.org. *In some cases, only the individual will not be allowed to stay and the rest of the family will still be eligible. 

4. Are you or anyone that will be staying on the National Sex Offender Registry? (Please note our staff do run all party names against this list)

Oregon Health Plan OHP Medicaid Information

While Ronald McDonald House Charities RMHC does not charge a fee or ask families to pay for their stay, we do work closely with state Medicaid (Oregon Health Plan OHP, Washington, Alaska, and Idaho State Medicaid) to obtain lodging reimbursement for a family's stay. This funding helps RMHC ensure families can stay at no cost. If the patient is still in utero, the parent's Medicaid information can be entered in.
