Mission Statement
The SECU Family House on the Richard J. Reynolds, III & Marie M. Reynolds Campus provides affordable lodging and support services in a caring environment for referred adult patients and/or their caregivers who travel to Winston-Salem, N.C., for medical treatment.
About This Cause
Winston-Salem is a medical community with two nationally ranked medical centers and limited affordable lodging for adult patients and their families. Caregivers often must camp out in hospital waiting rooms, hallways, and in their cars. Hospital personnel observe that many very sick patients are more concerned about their family’s living situation than about their own recovery. Approximately 400 families of inpatients from both hospitals require lodging each night. In addition, dozens of outpatients with serious conditions and their caregivers need accommodations. SECU Family House helps alleviate this huge need for affordable, comfortable lodging. Staff and volunteers are on site at all times to assist the more than 2,000 families a year who stay at the House, as well as the outpatients who come for day respite in between treatments such as radiation and chemotherapy. Referrals to SECU Family House can be made by staff at Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center, Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and by Hospice & Palliative CareCenter.
