Safety on vacation: Johanniter offer a flexible home emergency call service!
The holiday season is just around the corner and many people in Hesse are planning their well-deserved vacation. What is often overlooked is that the safety of relatives who stay at home is of great importance. But the Johanniters are remedying the situation: from June 15 to August 31, 2025, they are offering a temporary home emergency call service that is particularly tailored to the needs of family members and their relatives. This holiday service ensures that you can be completely relaxed even on holiday.
The offer is aimed primarily at those who want additional security while their loved ones are away. The comfort home emergency call includes a professional emergency call center that can be reached around the clock, as well as a key deposit in the event of an emergency. In addition, a qualified emergency service ensures that a quick response can be made in the event of an emergency. The minimum booking period is four weeks, and for a flat price of 75 euros, customers receive comprehensive protection for their relatives.
Flexible holiday service with many benefits
Customers who use the regular home emergency call service for a period of three months after using the holiday service can have the 75 euros credited for the holiday service. Booking is easy with the keyword “vacation” at the Johanniter, with a lead time of around a week. To book the service, you can contact us either by phone on 06106 8710-968 or by email. This service is now available for the entire summer period.
But what makes a good home emergency call service? Many older people or people with limited health want to live in their own four walls for as long as possible. Home emergency call systems are valuable support here. It is also important that the market for such systems is large and diverse. A study by Stiftung Warentest examined the quality of nine home emergency call services. The result showed that no provider was consistently convincing when it came to emergency call services. The grades varied from “satisfactory” to “poor” and make it clear that there is often still room for improvement in terms of service.
The best providers in the test
The test winner in the home emergency call category is the ASB home emergency call, which stands out for its responsiveness in simulated emergencies. With a monthly price of 25.50 euros and one-off connection costs between 20 and 60 euros, it is available nationwide. The German Red Cross came in second, scoring points for its good handling of emergency calls. Other services that performed well include the Malteser and the Johanniter home emergency call, both of which received a “satisfactory” grade.
| Provider | Monthly costs | Evaluation |
|---|---|---|
| ASB home emergency call | 25.50 euros | Satisfactory |
| German Red Cross | 25.50 euros | Satisfactory |
| Maltese home emergency call | 25.50 to 59.40 euros | Satisfactory |
| Johanniter home emergency call | — | Satisfactory |
The results from Stiftung Warentest show that consumers should pay attention to the contract conditions and the services offered when concluding contracts. Some providers are characterized by inadequate information on revocation or inadmissible liability clauses. This is particularly important because many home emergency call systems consist of a base station and a radio transmitter, which have simple functions but offer different performance ratings when it comes to handling.
With their flexible home emergency call service, Johanniter relies on security that is tailored to the needs of families. So nothing stands in the way of a relaxing summer holiday!
