Maternity Care

The day you hold your newborn baby in your arms, a whole new world opens up. For some new parents, this new world can feel overwhelming, so you may need peace, time, and a sense of connection to settle into your role as parents and to establish that early bond with your little one.

Private Maternity Nursing Care

With the help of experienced and dedicated maternity nurses from Private Health, you can get the support your new little family needs.

A nurse or midwife can be with you before, during, and after the birth, depending on your needs.

Some of our clients have had Private Health with them in the delivery room. Others have relied on our assistance starting from the moment they arrived at their room in the maternity ward. Still others have needed us to move into their homes and be available around the clock.

Here are some examples of what our maternity nurses can help with:

When you get home

When you come home from the hospital, a huge responsibility rests on your shoulders. Many new parents have never held an infant before and are therefore not always prepared for the task. There are many questions, and they keep coming up. These days, mothers and babies are sent home the very same day the baby is born. It can feel overwhelming to come home, tired after a difficult birth and with a newborn whose milk hasn’t come in yet. This is where Private Health can step in and help you with everything you might need—for example, help with latching your newborn and establishing breastfeeding, as well as instruction in postpartum care.

New Parents

What do you do when your baby cries?

How do you get a baby to eat?

How do you change a diaper, and how much—or how little—should a baby be dressed in?

Is the baby sleeping too little or too much, and what about the umbilical stump?

Perhaps you didn't sleep well during your pregnancy. Now that your baby—or babies—have been born, they're awake at all the times when you need to sleep.

With experienced maternity nurses from Private Health, you can be sure to have all the help and support you might need at your disposal. We’re right there with you, ready to demonstrate, guide, support, and motivate you. And we’re the extra hands you might need so you can take a few hours off and get some sleep until it’s time to hold your little one in your arms again.

Contributions from insurance and pension companies

We encourage clients, in special cases, to explore the possibility of receiving financial assistance from Sygesikring Danmark, insurance and pension companies, or other related health insurance providers.

In this regard, Private Health would like to note that Sygesikring Danmark provides a payment of approximately 12,000 DKK in cases of end-of-life care. To receive this benefit, various medical certificates from a doctor or hospital must be obtained. Private Health is happy to assist in obtaining these. In all cases, we recommend that clients and/or their relatives contact the relevant organizations directly for further information.

We've received some kind words

Over the past year, Private Health has provided exceptional care for our aging mother through nurses, personal care assistants, and physical therapists. With deep professional expertise and great warmth, they have created a sense of security and comfort in her daily life. In addition to all the medical care, Private Health also ensures that the home is always kept tidy, that the rooms are aired out, that there are fresh flowers on the table, and that meals are prepared with care and respect for our mother’s wishes.

After a fall and a broken elbow earlier this year, they provided her with focused rehabilitation, so she is now stronger and more mobile than before. And perhaps even more importantly, they have reignited her zest for life. Our mother now enjoys going for walks, visiting museums, and spending time with her friends—always with Private Health providing loving support.

My siblings and I aren’t always able to be there for our mother. That’s why it’s wonderful to know that we can always count on the dedicated, professional, and caring staff at Private Health—a company with so much warmth and heart—thank you all!

Family in Rudersdal

We have been using Private Health for more than 8 months with great pleasure and satisfaction.

We have nothing but praise for the care, professionalism, and tireless problem-solving we have experienced throughout this entire period.

Regardless of the scope or content of the assignment, Private Health has responded to our requests—including the many urgent needs that arose during this period.

Every time, we’ve received prompt responses, suggestions for solutions, and kind, patient colleagues who’ve been incredibly supportive of our sick mother and our father, who faces challenges.

We highly recommend Private Health—they have been the main reason we, as family members, have been able to get through a very difficult time.

Family in Hørsholm

I was looking for in-home care for my father while on vacation in Mols. Private Health found a local caregiver within just a few days who provided care for my father. Very professional and highly efficient service. They went above and beyond to find a solution for us in an area they don’t normally serve. A pleasure to work with and highly recommended.

Family Members in Frederiksberg

Private Health helped me with my rehabilitation, and it made a huge difference. I was met with care, calm, and professionalism—and I truly felt seen. Thank you for your support; it meant more to me than you can imagine.

Client in Rudersdal

Dear Private Health and the entire team,

Thank you so much for stepping in during an urgent and very critical situation for my mother and our entire family. Your professionalism and care were outstanding and highly competent.

Our warmest recommendations.

Frederik

When our father became terminally ill, he wanted to spend his final days at home, and we struggled to get public assistance, but ran into long wait times and the summer break.

Private Health and the entire team were our lifeline! Within just a few days, they arranged absolutely fantastic help and support, with daily visits and care, and were incredibly flexible in quickly adapting the care as the illness progressed.

Thanks to Private Health and its wonderful, highly professional nurses, our father was able to have the end of life he wanted.

Family in Nærum

After our father’s death, it was hard for our mother to be alone so much, and we weren’t able to visit her every day ourselves. That’s why it was such a great help that Private Health was able to arrange 2–3 weekly visits to our mother at very short notice for a couple of months.

"Pleasant visits filled with conversation and short walks helped her gradually move forward during that difficult initial period."

Daughter, Louise

24-Hour Care

Maternity nurses from Private Health can move in with you if needed and be with you day and night during the early days. Depending on how many days or weeks you need help and support, you’ll be assigned a dedicated team of 2–4 nurses.

If you contact us before your due date, we can work together to put together a team that’s the best fit for your little family. Of course, we’re also available on short notice if, after returning home from the maternity ward, you find that things are getting overwhelming and you need support and help from caring and experienced postpartum nurses.

Private Health is happy to help you design a customized postpartum care plan—always with complete discretion. Our greatest mission is to offer you postpartum care that supports, motivates, relieves, and looks after you, so that you can all get off to a safe and smooth start in your new role as a family with children.
