Where to stay while having radiation at Mayo Clinic Rochester?

Posted by merrijohnson @merrijohnson, Aug 23, 2019

We are looking for lodging/housing for my brother & family while he undergoes 6 weeks of chemo/radiation at Mayo. We were told by his doctor that free lodging is available for patients receiving radiation, but we aren't having any success in finding any. Any advice is appreciated.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Visiting Mayo Clinic Support Group.

@jibway If you scroll up to find the @colleenyoung post from yesterday you will see a list of options for requesting lodging in Jacksonville while getting radiation treatment.

I copied the relevant links for you here.

I received recommendations for lodging from the Concierge service who had a desk right in Radiation Oncology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.

There is a Hope Lodge in Jacksonville, Florida as well as the other Mayo locations in Rochester and Phoenix.

– American Cancer Society Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation Hope Lodge— Jacksonville, FL https://www.cancer.org/support-programs-and-services/patient-lodging/hope-lodge/jacksonville/about-our-facility.html

You can also contact the free Mayo Concierge Services for recommendations:

Will you contact Mayo Concierge service today and get started on recommendations?

You might want to contact the Mayo Clinic social work department for more information about free lodging options for your brother and family. Good luck!
