When recovering from illnesses patients will be able to stay there in one or two bedroom apartments. There's even an indoor play area. It's a new home away from home for patients.

"Our goal every day is to make it a full and rich experience for the families that we serve. We know how difficult their journey is. We know that it starts when it's very dark and scary for them … and we know that we can make it a whole and rich experience regardless of what the outcome might be," said Donn Eley.
