Judy & Bernard Briskin Hope Village
In keeping with our mission to care for the whole person — physically and emotionally — City of Hope is one of the few cancer centers in the country to offer patients and their caregivers temporary, on-site housing in a comfortable, home-like setting.
Village Hospice
Sometimes cancer cannot be cured, despite the best efforts. The ability to spend one's last days in a comforting home-like setting and to die with dignity is the inspiration behind City of Hope’s Village Hospice. In fully equipped apartments that open out to meditative gardens, patients and their families can be together — quietly, peacefully — close to their medical care team, yet in a place all their own.
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials — research studies that involve volunteer patients — are a crucial component to developing new, more effective treatments that save lives. Many of today’s standard therapies are based on the results of previous trials, some of which were initiated at City of Hope.
