Our Programs
What We Do
To qualify for a room, the family must have a child who is 21 years or younger and receiving care in Westchester County. There is often a wait list for a room. Rooms are given based on the critical nature of the patient and distance from the family’s home to the hospital.
Our Day Program may be utilized by families who have children aged 21 years or younger being treated in Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital or Blythedale Children’s Hospital and who are not currently guests of the House.
Our rejuvenation room is a sanctuary where you can take a break from the demands of the day and focus on self-care. To be eligible for the Rejuvenation Room, you must apply and be approved to the Day Program first.
