I work for a hospice company and I use my own vehicle to travel to patients homes. How do I claim mileage fees?

if you get a 1099 and work out of your home, then you can use standard mileage or actual expenses.  if you work at hospice, traveling from home to hospice is personal and only the mileage from hospice to patient and back to hospice ids deductible mileage.

You can not deduct the expense!  See this  https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/credits-and-deductions/help/can-employees-deduct-any-job-related-expenses/00/25783
