Marriott Stands by Patients When Treatment Requires Move

For many people with leukemia and their families, treatment is not limited to the hospital. It also involves travel, last-minute changes of plans, and stays away from home that, although brief, can be particularly demanding. In this context, having access to comfortable accommodations close to the medical center is crucial to facing the process with a bit more peace of mind and security.

Marriott makes this support possible by offering lodging to patients and their families who need to travel for medical appointments or treatments that require a short stay. This gesture alleviates the logistical and emotional burden during especially sensitive times.

Currently, the Josep Carreras Foundation benefits from the support of AC Illa, AC Sants, and The Barcelona EDITION hotels, which provide their spaces so that patients and families can rest near reference hospitals in a dignified and well-cared-for environment. The Josep Carreras Foundation would like to sincerely thank Marriott and its teams for their involvement and sensitivity. Actions like this contribute, in a very concrete way, to improving the experience of those living with leukemia and who need to feel supported, even outside the hospital.
