Guest Eligibility

The Fisher House at Camp Pendleton is available to active duty, retired military, and veterans and their families from all services. The family must be traveling a minimum distance of 40 miles one way with no local lodging accommodations available. The patient's condition must be serious in nature and not diagnostic testing, general or elective procedures.

​

Due to priority and urgent medical needs, it is not always possible to admit families on a first come first serve  basis.  The following factors are taken into consideration.

​

• Medical Condition - Terminal, Critical, Serious (Not for elective procedures)

• Financial - Junior personnel have priority

• Status - Active duty personnel have priority

• Each family will be assigned one guest room

​

Once eligibility and availability are confirmed, the family will be contacted by the Fisher House staff when a room is available. Each family will be assigned one guest room and one parking space.  A family may be admitted after business hours if prior arrangements have been made. Emergency or overnight walk-ins may be accommodated after contacting the Fisher House Manager.
