There is no version of this trip that families plan for.
If your child is being treated at MD Anderson's pediatric cancer program, you did not choose this. You are simply trying to get through it, one appointment, one round of treatment, one day at a time. The last thing you should have to figure out on top of everything else is where your family is going to sleep.
Medical Accommodations provides fully furnished apartments near MD Anderson, built for families going through pediatric cancer treatment. Real bedrooms. A real kitchen. Enough space for siblings, grandparents, or whoever needs to be there. A place that feels like a home base instead of one more waiting room.
Short-Term and Long-Term Housing for Pediatric Cancer Families
Childhood cancer treatment does not run on a short timeline. Families often need to be near MD Anderson for weeks or months at a time, sometimes longer if treatment is extended. Medical Accommodations offers flexible lease terms designed around treatment schedules, not the other way around.
We work with parents, grandparents, and extended family members who need to be close to their child during one of the hardest experiences a family can go through.
What's Here for Your Family
Full Kitchen: Pediatric cancer treatment often comes with specific dietary guidance. A real kitchen means you can prepare food your child will actually eat, on your own schedule, without the expense and uncertainty of eating out every meal.
Separate Bedrooms: Whether it is a parent and child, two parents and siblings, or extended family staying together, our two and three-bedroom apartments give everyone their own space. Privacy and rest matter for the whole family, not just the patient.
In-Unit Washer and Dryer: Hospital stays come with constant laundry. Having your own washer and dryer means one less errand, one less thing pulling you away from your child.
Gated and Secure Community: A controlled-access environment gives families peace of mind, especially when children are spending time in common areas or playing outside.
Free Shuttle Service (Select Properties): Several of our properties offer complimentary shuttle service directly to MD Anderson, removing the stress of parking, traffic, and rideshare costs on treatment days.
Flexible Lease Terms: No long-term lease required. Stay as long as your child's treatment requires, and extend without the stress of finding new housing mid-treatment.
Professionally Cleaned Between Stays: For families with an immunocompromised child, cleanliness is not a preference. Every apartment is cleaned to standards designed for medically sensitive guests.
24/7 Emergency Maintenance: If something goes wrong in the unit, someone is available any hour, any day. You should never have to manage a maintenance issue while also managing your child's care.
