Family House
Purpose
By offering safe, convenient, affordable housing and a network of support, comfort, and compassion, Family House reduces emotional and financial stress for people dealing with medical crises in a city where they are strangers. Located within close proximity to area hospitals, Family House offers the comforts of home and convenience to loved ones at affordable rates. Whether here for cancer treatments, trauma care, or transplants, our services give families the peace-of-mind to focus on the care of those closest to them. At Family House, guests find respite after long days at the hospital and compassion from our staff and volunteers. Guests become a family, united in their journeys and similar circumstances. Family House is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization governed by a community Board of Directors.
Vision
To fulfill its mission, Family House offers a room rate at a fraction of what one would pay for a hotel in the Oakland or Shadyside neighborhoods. The peaceful, home-like atmosphere at Family House has been intentionally designed, with complimentary services such as weekday breakfast, transportation, stocked food pantries, and more.
Mission
Family House provides a “home away from home” for patients and their families who must travel to Pittsburgh for medical care.
Additional Culture Details
Family House is an essential partner in the region’s healthcare delivery system, serving those who travel long distances, as well as Pennsylvania residents who must travel across the state. Family House’s lodging facility and the services, carried out by its professional staff and volunteer corps, are an essential part of the healthcare journey.
