UAB Women and Infants Center

In January 2018, RMHCA opened Birmingham’s first Ronald McDonald Family Room at UAB Women & Infants Center. Located within the Regional NICU and Continuing Care Nursery, this family room includes a kitchen where families can grab a snack or warm up a meal; a sitting area for reading, chatting, or watching TV; and tables where parents can share a meal or enjoy family programs.

  • Two moms make friendship bracelets
  • A mom and dad
  • Mike and Sarah take a break in the Ronald McDonald Family Room at UAB

There are also three (3) private showers and (3) private sleeping rooms where parents can rest and recharge.

Since 2018, the Family Room has positively impacted guests in many ways:

52,000 visits by parents to relax, join arts and crafts, or to grab a snack

1,600 room nights so parents can be steps from their infant

2,600 babies had their parents by their side

The Common Area

Open from

The Family Room allows RMHC of Alabama to serve more families in addition to those who qualify to stay at the Ronald McDonald House.
