Families face many challenges when a loved one needs cancer treatment far from home. It can be uncomfortable and extremely costly to stay in hotels for weeks at a time. That's where the American Cancer Society Hope Lodge can help. When patients travel to Cincinnati for cancer treatment, the Hope Lodge offers a comfortable, home-like environment in which to stay.
You can play a part in the Cincinnati Hope Lodge Capital Campaign.

Hope Lodge provides kitchen areas where families can cook their own meals. Comfortable rooms have private bathrooms and plenty of space for cancer patients and their caregivers. Televisions are only available in community rooms to encourage interaction and group support among all residents. There is a chapel for reflection and prayer. An exercise room to work out physically, and a library to work out mentally are also located in the building.
Hope Lodge is a "home away from home" for cancer patients at a time when they need it most.
Adults with cancer may arrange for themselves and up to two caregivers to stay at the Hope Lodge through a referral process involving their Cincinnati area physician, social worker, or nurse. The healthcare professional will coordinate with the Hope Lodge staff to place the person's name on a reservation or waiting list. The healthcare professional may also help coordinate alternate arrangements if necessary. It is advisable to initiate the referral process well in advance of the first date of treatment, as patients are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Each person with cancer is required to bring an adult family member or friend to serve as a caregiver while staying at the Hope Lodge. Adult cancer patients and caregivers must meet eligibility criteria and be able to perform expected responsibilities as described in the Hope Lodge General Guidelines.
To initiate a patient referral, please contact the Cincinnati Hope Lodge at the phone number provided below.
