What is IDEM?
"In the Service of a Fellow Human Being", abbreviated IDEM, is a group of people who dedicate part of their free time unpaid to serve sick, needy, and often lonely people, taking on individual and patient-tailored care tasks. The goal of every IDEM volunteer is to make the hospital stay as pleasant as possible for the affected person as well as for those directly or indirectly involved in the recovery process.
