McLaren has long realized that addressing patients’ needs goes well beyond providing the latest technology and treatment. It also includes a focus on providing support and resources to address the emotional, spiritual, and extended physical needs of patients and their caregivers. That focus is the catalyst behind the development of the Hospitality House which offers low, and sometimes no, cost overnight accommodations to out-of-town patients and their caregivers.
McLaren provides cancer, stroke, cardiac, bariatric, surgical, emergency, and other types of care to patients who live outside the area; some even come to us from other countries. With that in mind, the Hospitality House’s mission is two-fold. First, we to create a healing, caring and comfortable environment for adult and pediatric patients and their caregivers. Our second goal is to provide comfortable, extended-stay housing at a low cost.
The Hospitality House provides easy access for treatment, support services, and other medical needs. It also offers quiet spaces along with amenities, like a large kitchen, laundry, craft room, and library, to support healing and hope. Further, by relieving the financial burden associated with housing during this challenging time, the Hospitality House enables patients and their caregivers to focus solely on physical and emotional healing.
The Hospitality House creates an atmosphere in which guests can become part of a larger family, if they choose. Patients and caregivers have an opportunity to share their feelings and draw strength from one another in organized and informal settings. They can also reflect in more peaceful solitude in the Reflection Room, walking trail, and other spaces. Special care is important when people are feeling the emotional, physical, and financial pressures of a medical concern.
