Background Checks
All families who wish to stay at our House are required to complete our online guest application and background check disclosure. Once the application has been processed and approved, one of our staff members will contact you. Please note, only applicants who have completed the guest application and background check will be able to stay at our House.
How much does it cost per night?
Families are encouraged to make a $12 per night donation. Arrangements may be made for a reduced and/or waived rate on a case by case basis. No family is ever turned away because of their inability to pay.
How can my family stay?
In general, Ronald McDonald House of Mobile offers rooms for families of pediatric patients 21 years of age or under. The first step to staying at RMHC Mobile is to have a medical facility send in a Referral Form on your behalf. Start by asking a social worker, nurse, or your child’s doctor at the hospital where your child will receive treatment if they can submit a Patient Referral Application to RMHC Mobile. Once your referral form is received from the medical facility, you will get a phone call from the House to begin your registration paperwork and an e-mail to complete a background check. Each guest over the age of 18 who will be staying at RMHC Mobile must complete the registration paperwork and a background check.
