Private care for the elderly brings peace of mind and a sense of connection to everyday life
Unfortunately, the public elder care system cannot always provide the necessary extra care and companionship. Furthermore, as a family member, you do not always have the resources to be available around the clock.
Our nurses are attentive and dedicated, and can step in when you, as a family member, need a break. Self-determination and compassionate care in a safe environment are core values in our approach to respite care.
We offer a wide range of professional nursing support services, including daily care, medication management, wound care, companionship, and treatment coordination—all based on professional nursing judgment and always with the patient’s well-being as our top priority.
What is private respite care?
Private respite care is about providing the support needed to enable you to remain in your own home and maintain your quality of life—whether that need arises due to aging, illness, or following surgery. As people age or after surgery, everyday tasks such as personal care, medication management, and household chores can become a challenge, and that’s where we step in.
At Private Health, we offer professional assistance tailored to each individual’s needs. Our experienced nurses ensure that your loved ones receive the care and support they need to maintain a dignified and independent life.
We are a trusted provider of private respite care
From our perspective, private care is about more than just handling practical tasks. We believe that genuine presence, professional competence, and mutual respect are the foundation of a positive experience, and our goal is to give you or your loved one the opportunity to live an independent and dignified life in safe, familiar surroundings. As a healthcare provider that builds trust, we offer, among other things:
Dedicated point of contact, dedicated nurses
You will be assigned a dedicated point of contact as well as a hand-picked team of nurses.
24/7 hotline –
available 24/7
You can reach us 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This provides peace of mind and security,
Private respite care with a focus on aesthetics and spiritual care
We coordinate your care and treatment so that you always experience continuity and peace of mind throughout the process.
Support for Family Members
Being a caregiver for an older adult who needs extra care and support can be a major responsibility. For many caregivers, it can be a challenge to balance their own lives with the needs of the older adult.
Private respite care gives family members a much-needed break, so they can have the time and energy to take care of their own needs and responsibilities.
When you, as a family member, have the opportunity to take a step back, you can better be there for your loved one in a way that doesn’t drain you physically or emotionally. Relief through private nursing care is therefore not just about the direct care of the elderly person, but also about giving family members a chance to recharge and find peace in their daily lives.
And when the practical tasks are in good hands, something important happens: you gain the freedom to be there for your loved one in the way that matters most. Not as a coordinator or caregiver—but as a son, daughter, spouse, or friend. That time together, free from stress and chores, is often the most precious of all.

Brochure About Us
Why choose private respite care?
Private home care offers a number of benefits that the municipal system often cannot provide. At Private Health, you’ll always be cared for by a designated point of contact and a dedicated team of nurses who get to know your daily routines and needs. This creates a sense of security and continuity that is invaluable to both the client and their family.
We take care of everything from medication management and personal care to companionship and activities that can stimulate and bring joy.
Below, you can read more about how we can help you or your loved one:
Aesthetics and Atmosphere as Part of the Relief Process
At Private Health, we believe that the environment plays a crucial role in well-being and comfort. That is why our nurses consciously work with the sensory experiences that surround our clients—the sounds, scents, and moods that together create a calm and healing atmosphere in the home.
For some older adults, the ability to create this environment on their own is limited. That’s where we step in to ensure that their daily lives feel dignified, safe, and comfortable.
We call this “working with aesthetics in elder care,” and it is a natural part of every respite care program we offer. All of our employees are licensed nurses who are guided by a single, fundamental principle—the individual and that person’s unique needs.
Tailored private respite care for seniors, with a focus on care
At Private Health, we always take a personalized approach. We tailor our care plans to each individual so that both the senior and their loved ones feel seen and heard. This can be crucial to ensuring that the care we provide contributes to a meaningful and fulfilling daily life.
Our core values—calm, compassion, aesthetics, and spiritual care—are at the heart of everything we do and form the foundation of our care program.
We offer a wide range of nursing services, including daily care, medication management, wound care, rehabilitation, and more—always with a focus on professional nursing judgment.
You'll have a dedicated team, so you'll always be greeted by familiar faces every time you visit.
Practical support, assistance, and coordination in everyday life
At Private Health, we offer a wide range of support services designed to ease the daily burdens on both seniors and their families.
We serve as a healthcare coordinator, relieving the burden on family members in order to provide peace of mind and security for the entire family, so that the elderly person can remain in familiar surroundings with dignity and a good quality of life.
Our private nurses can help with, among other things:
- Coordinating appointments at, for example, the hospital, with your primary care physician, and with a physical therapist
- Accompaniment to doctor's and hospital visits, as well as social activities
- Cooking
- Medication Management
- Wound Care

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.
What do we offer?
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
Social Support and Companionship—More Than Just Care
Private care for the elderly involves much more than just practical tasks and medication management. For many older adults, loneliness and a lack of social interaction are among the greatest challenges in their daily lives. And this is precisely where our private nurses make a difference that goes far beyond the purely professional.
At Private Health, we see the whole person. Our nurses aren’t just professionals—they’re caring individuals who take the time for a meaningful conversation, a leisurely cup of coffee, and a short walk to lift your spirits. It’s the kind of personal attention that municipal care rarely has time for, but which we know makes a huge difference to mental health and quality of life.
