Ronald Mcdonald House Charities Of New Mexico

Rmhcnm operates two family rooms which extend the comfort of the house to a hospital setting. The family rooms are located inside the university of new mexico's children's hospital and the presbyterian hospital. Located just steps from neonatal and pediatric intensive care units, these respite spaces provide families of critically ill children a place to rest, get something to eat and even do laundry. Additionally, the family room at presbyterian hospital includes four overnight sleep rooms to allow families to stay within steps of their child's hospital bed. The family rooms are staffed totally by volunteers. In 2024, there were more than 130 volunteers who gave more than 9,500 hours of their time. The family rooms had more than 1,300 family registrations during the year.
