George Mark is designed to allow a family to just be a family, by providing support at one of the most difficult times in a family’s life.
Our house is your home
Our home is a lovely space for children and their families, providing a bridge between hospital and home. We are a fully licensed and accredited non-profit medical facility. We provide safe, excellent medical care in the comfort and warmth of a home-like setting for children who do not need the ongoing resources of a children’s hospital. Our family-centered care emphasizes quality of life and wholeness of spirit in a compassionate, supportive atmosphere.
Thank you to our supporters, donors, families and friends for a very successful Autumn Celebration 2019!
