SCRANTON \u2014 Ronald McDonald House Charities and Allied Services on Friday celebrated the grand opening of the Ronald McDonald House Family Room at the John P. Moses, Esq. Pediatric Rehabilitation Center in Scranton with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.<\/p>\n

Designed with families in mind, the space offers a welcoming environment where parents, caregivers, and siblings can relax, recharge, and take a break \u2014 without leaving the care setting. <\/p>\n

The Ronald McDonald House Family Room at Allied Services provides a place for families to enjoy a nutritious snack, take a moment to rest, or help siblings catch up on homework \u2014 all just steps away from their child\u2019s therapy sessions.<\/p>\n

For many families served at Allied Services, medical care doesn\u2019t stop at the hospital. Children with complex medical needs often attend multiple therapy appointments each week \u2014 sometimes across several disciplines, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy.<\/p>\n

Families may spend extended periods of time at the center, particularly when more than one child is receiving services.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis space recognizes the realities of outpatient care,\u201d noted Atty. Bill Conaboy, President & CEO of Allied Services. \u201cIt\u2019s a place where families can feel supported, welcomed, and cared for \u2014 just as much as the patients themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first Ronald McDonald House Family Room in the United States opened in 1992, created to ensure families had a place to regain their own strength without being far from their child\u2019s bedside. <\/p>\n
