A family room is now officially open in the Paediatric and Adolescent unit of Wagga Hospital, providing some home comforts for the families of sick kids

Nurse Unit Manager Pamela Rawle says the room has been a welcome refuge.

It's open 24-7 and allows families to rest, shower, do their washing, watch TV, work, or just sit and have a quiet cup of coffee, while staying close to their child on the ward.

It's in addition to the overnight accommodation provided by the Ronald McDonald House Kidz Kottage.
