Holiday Inn-Morgantown partners with Mon Health Medical Center to house outof-area patient families during hospital stays

Thousands of patients travel to Morgantown each year to receive the nationally recognized medical care offered at Mon Health Medical Center in Morgantown. Families of patients traveling for this care may now benefit from a new program that provides affordable accommodations in Morgantown.

Thanks to a partnership with the Holiday Inn-Morgantown, the new program will dedicate hotel rooms and accommodations to offer supportive housing for families and visitors of patients undergoing a procedure or treatment at Mon Health Medical Center. The program kicked off in early November and will run through April 1, 2021.

“We understand travelling for a loved one’s medical care comes with its own set of challenges,” said Mark Gilliam, Mon Health Medical Center Chief Administrative Officer. “That’s why we want to provide an option for out-of-area families who need a place to stay while they remain focused on their loved one’s health.”

Handicap rooms are also available upon request.

“When a serious illness or injury strikes, staying close to family is important,” said Jeff Albrecht, owner/operator of the Holiday Inn. “Not having a place to stay adds stress to families who are already coping with sometimes life-threatening changes and we are happy to offer support however we can.”
