“As a DB subsidiary, we are part of the lifeline of this society. We therefore consider it our social duty to make a contribution to the operation of this country. With ioki cares, we want to assist in making the daily work of helpers easier through individual and reliable mobility,” said Michael Barillère-Scholz, Managing Director of ioki. An employer registers their employees and the shuttle can be booked via the ioki Hamburg app. Every Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., ioki Hamburg offers transport for patients in local medical centres. Patients who would like to use the shuttle service should register their travel request in advance through their respective doctor’s surgery, which then books the service.
