Mon Health Medical Center has partnered with Holiday Inn in Morgantown to help shelter family members of patients from out of town.SUBMITTED RENDERING
FAIRMONT â When family members accompany their loved ones to Morgantown for cancer treatment, the last thing they need to worry about is paying for an expensive hotel stay on top of paying for cancer therapy.
Luella Gunter, executive director of philanthropy at Mon Health Medical Center, said hospital officials began looking for ways to accommodate families during such stressful times.
âWe do a lot with our cancer patients; they are going through treatments,â Gunter said. âThat was sort of the onset of this idea; we realized how many patients are coming here and having to stay throughout the entire week.â
