So thankful this place is available so near to Fox Chase Cancer for their patients and families.
A very,very nice place to stay while getting treatment at the Fox Chase Cancer Center!
A wonderful place where others suffering from cancer and their caregiver stay at no cost. This beautiful facility promotes community gatherings where everyone will eat. There's no food in the rooms.
Help serve dinner to Cancer patients and there Caregivers. Friendly staff! Great facility!!
The AstraZeneca Hope Lodge is a warm, welcoming and tranquil place with an incredible staff and wonderful volunteers. My treatment process was so much more bearable because of the staff s support and dedication to each resident. I met and made so many friends going through treatment that shared their personal stories. It was just and all-around amazing experience that I will never forget.
Phanominal set up! Beautiful rooms elegant place gets a 5 star and more. Best place ever! Thank you staff and all for your kindness it's deeply appreciated. +
It was a blessing to stay in such a beautiful place, to enjoy the flora and fauna. Share with solidarity volunteers. The orderly and pending administration of guests. All amenities, games, delicious dinners, extreme cleanliness. A cozy home
Congratulations.
This is a haven for patients and caregivers. Truly a home away from home. Very special friendships can be created here through the support of the residents, if one chooses to connect with others. The people here help to make an otherwise stressful period of life more calm and caring.
Not a public place. For families of FoxChase patients in this hospital for cancer treatment. AstraZeneca provides the services free of charge. Beautiful setting with great customer service.
This place is amazing!! A blessing for those suffering with Cancer. One can come stay free with a care provider if driving more than 40 miles from your home to receive treatment. Clean and many amenities: laundry room, 4 kitchens, library, fire place....If you know someone who needs this service, spread the word.
My husband was diagnosed with breast cancer. He receives treatment at The Cancer Treatment Center of America. We live on a limited income and may not be able to come to Philly for treatment if it weren't for Hope Lodge. the staff is great and very helpful. The Volunteers are just so appreciated. If I could give them 10 stars I would.
This place is just WONDERFUL. Family and patients can relax, recover and get ready for their next fight. Some nights they even provide dinner for you and your caretaker. We traveled from South Jersey for some early morning appointments. It was so comforting to get there the night before with my sick Brother and not have to worry about making to Fox Chase for those early appointments. The staff is great also. I cannot say enough about how great our stays there were.
Thank you to all the volunteers.

It's very quiet & peaceful in a remote location. There's a huge fully stocked kitchen with multiple stoves, microwaves, pots, pans, dishes, cooking utensils. Staff is friendly and helpful. There's a laundry on each floor with laundry detergent. There are volunteers that come in to prepare dinner for the guest 4 days a week
Great accommodations, helpful and friendly staff, super location and wonderful volunteers who frequently serve hot, delicious dinners .
Lovely room, great staff very clean near Fox Chase Cancer Center. Great facility for Cancer patients and family
Hope Lodge has been one of the most healing and loving places that I have ever encountered. The entire staff is supportive of each individual staying at the Lodge. It is easy to tell that this is a vocation to them, rather than merely a job.
Other guests provide nurturing, companionship and support to each other. This is a very important aspect of the healing process.
Love coming to serve dinner at the Hope Lodge! Have gone a few times now with my fellow YPACS (Young Professionals of the American Cancer Society) council members. Best part is being able to sit down with the patients & their caregivers to talk about....anything! From food, tv shows, where they are from, etc. Such an amazing service that this place provides and glad to always be able to contribute to making it a good experience for those staying there.
A clean place, friendly people and close to Philly hospitals and attractions.
What a wonderful place. Clean rooms and compassionate staff. Thank you so much!
This is a beautiful place with great staff, especially when you are facing a challenging time in your life. It is also close to Fox Chase. Thanks for being there.
Excellent added part of the treatment program for cancer patients and their caregivers/ family, makes the burden of dealing with a unfortunate situation so much easier. Thank God for the staff and Doctors at Jeanes Hospital
The work done at The Hope Lodge shows how all the hard work by tens of thousands of volunteers across the world
My husband is the patient I love how they take some of our worries by having this place so close to hospital for my husband s treatment. It's a blessing we don t know what we would do if it weren t for the hope lodge
AstraZeneca Hope Lodge: A Haven for Cancer Patients
Cancer is a disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a life-changing diagnosis that can be overwhelming and isolating. Fortunately, there are organizations like AstraZeneca Hope Lodge that provide support and resources to cancer patients and their families.
AstraZeneca Hope Lodge is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping people who face cancer. The organization was founded in 1970 by the American Cancer Society with the goal of providing free lodging for cancer patients who need to travel far from home for treatment.
The organization has since expanded its services to include patient services, early detection, treatment, education, and research. They have partnered with leading medical institutions across the country to provide state-of-the-art care and support for cancer patients.
One of the most significant challenges facing cancer patients is access to quality care. Many people live in areas where there are limited resources or cannot afford expensive treatments. AstraZeneca Hope Lodge provides free lodging for patients who need to travel long distances for treatment.
The lodges are located near major medical centers across the country and offer comfortable accommodations with private rooms, communal living spaces, kitchens, laundry facilities, and transportation services. This allows patients to focus on their recovery without worrying about housing expenses or transportation costs.
In addition to lodging services, AstraZeneca Hope Lodge offers a range of patient services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual patient. These include counseling services, nutritional support programs, exercise classes, art therapy sessions as well as educational programs on topics such as managing side effects from treatments or coping with stress during recovery.
Early detection is critical in treating cancer effectively; therefore AstraZeneca Hope Lodge also provides screening programs aimed at detecting cancers early when they are more treatable. The organization partners with local health clinics across the country offering free screenings such as mammograms or colonoscopies depending on age-appropriate guidelines.
Treatment options vary depending on each individual's diagnosis; however AstraZeneca Hope Lodge works closely with leading medical institutions across the country providing access cutting-edge treatments including clinical trials which may not be available elsewhere yet but could potentially save lives in future years through new discoveries made during these trials!
Education plays an essential role in empowering individuals affected by cancer; therefore AstraZeneca Hope Lodge offers educational programs aimed at educating both patients and caregivers about various aspects related not only directly but also indirectly related issues surrounding this disease such as financial assistance options available through insurance companies or government agencies like Medicare/Medicaid etc., how best manage symptoms associated with chemotherapy/radiation therapy etc., how best communicate effectively between family members/friends/healthcare providers etc..
Finally research plays an important role in advancing our understanding of this complex disease; therefore Astra Zenecas' partnership program supports researchers working towards finding new ways prevent/treat/cure different types cancers!
In conclusion,Astrazenca hope lodge has been instrumental over many years now helping thousands upon thousands individuals affected by this devastating disease called "cancer". Their commitment towards improving lives those impacted by it remains unwaveringly strong today just like it was when they first started back 50 years ago!
