Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio has partnered with OhioHealth to operate Central Ohio’s first Ronald McDonald Family Room. This space serves as a respite for families with babies & children receiving medical care at OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital. We provide a relaxed space for families to grab a snack or a drink, take a shower, do a load of laundry, or take a quick break just steps from their inpatient child, if only for a few moments.
The 1,000-square foot space on the fifth floor of the Yellow Area features:
We’d like to give a sincere thank you to the many donors making this space possible including the Blue Jackets Foundation, the Lady Jackets, Worthington Industries, and Safelite AutoGlass.

When families walk into the Ronald McDonald Family Room at Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, we want them to forget they’re in a hospital. Centrally located in the Pavilion, the Ronald McDonald Family Room offers families a place to rest and regroup while remaining close to their child by providing a welcoming, homelike environment.
