It is how Ronald McDonald House decides.
The hospital refers the families to the houses. We are doubling our capacity to be able to serve more families. Currently, in terms of the structure, we rely on the expertise of the hospital and the doctors to refer to us the families that are in the greatest need and have the greatest physical distance to travel.
For most of our houses, they have the criterion that a family has to live at least 80 kilometres away to be considered for staying at the house. Then we take the referrals through the social workers and the doctors at the hospital. That's how the families come to stay with us.
The good news is that we have doubled in size in the last five years, up today to 476 bedrooms from 217 bedrooms five years ago. We're able to accommodate far more families now than we had in the past.
We do rely very much on the specialty centres in the hospital to refer the families to us.
