We tailor your care precisely to your wishes and needs in your home in Gentofte, where flexibility and respect for the way you live go hand in hand. This means that together we make sure you receive the support that gives you the greatest sense of security and well-being in your everyday life.

At Private Health, we look at the whole person, not just the illness. We believe presence, calm and professional expertise are the foundation of dignified care. Our goal is to support both relatives and the client in safe, familiar surroundings when setting up private hospice care at home.
You are assigned a dedicated contact person and a hand-picked team of palliative nurses.
You can reach us 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. That brings peace of mind and security.
We coordinate care and treatment so that you always experience continuity and peace of mind throughout your care.
Private hospice care means you can stay in your familiar surroundings instead of moving into an institution. Our registered nurses, who are experienced in palliative care, give you a sense of security and a caring presence throughout the process.
We provide palliative care, which is about relieving your pain and minimising your discomfort. Our focus is on preserving your quality of life, physically, mentally and socially, so that you can enjoy the best possible day-to-day life.
We begin care early and adjust it continuously as your needs change, including pain relief, personal care and coordination with your doctors and hospital. We offer palliative care and private hospice care in Gentofte with compassion and the individual at the centre.
We always start with a conversation, with no obligation and at your pace. We listen to your wishes and needs. You are welcome to call, write or have a relative get in touch.
We come to your home so we can get a sense of your surroundings and talk in more concrete terms about how we can best support you in your everyday life.
You will have a dedicated team of terminal care nurses who stay with you throughout your care. This provides reassurance and means you do not have to start from scratch each time.
Once everything is in place, your care gets under way quietly and calmly. We adapt to your rhythm and needs and make sure you receive the help and support you need.
Terminal illness declaration: When you or someone close to you receives a serious diagnosis, we help you obtain a terminal illness declaration from the doctor. It gives access to necessary medication and makes it possible for your relatives to take leave to care for you. We support you through the process so you receive the right benefits without unnecessary waiting.
Equipment and medication: We take care of ordering and delivering the medication your doctor has prescribed. We also supply the necessary equipment, such as an adjustable bed, a pressure-relieving mattress and supplies for administering medication. Everything is adapted to your needs for the greatest possible comfort.
Setting up the room: We arrange the chosen room with a focus on soft lighting, muted sound and a pleasant atmosphere. We favour an aesthetic look over a clinical setting, so your room feels like a peaceful place where you can feel safe.
The nurse’s role: Our nurses have overall responsibility for your care and keep a close eye on how you are feeling. They relieve pain and discomfort. They also help with practical tasks such as bathing, hair care, oral hygiene and dressing.
Special needs: Early on in your care, we talk about your wishes and needs. We will be there to give you and those closest to you some respite, so you can spend your energy on being together. Your well-being and sense of security are our most important task.
Peace and security in your own home: Being in your own home in the final stage of life can bring an irreplaceable sense of security. The familiar surroundings, the personal atmosphere and the daily routine can give the client a deep sense of security and calm.
Personal, tailored care: At Private Health, we understand that every client is unique and that their needs can vary. That is why we offer a tailored care plan that takes into account the client’s individual wishes and needs, ensuring they receive the best possible care.
The chance to be surrounded by close family: In the safety of home, the client can be surrounded by family and loved ones at all times. This can not only give the client a sense of love and support, but also give relatives the chance to spend quality time together in a familiar atmosphere.
Flexibility in the care plan: The final stage of life can be unpredictable, and needs can change quickly. With hospice care at home, we can be flexible and quickly adapt the care plan to changing needs, ensuring the client always receives the right care.
Private Health offers professional private nursing care and terminal care in your own home, always focused on the whole person. We are a healthcare provider that inspires trust, and we believe that presence, aesthetics and high professional standards create the best setting for care and quality of life, including in the final stage of life or during serious illness.
Our experienced nurses are dedicated to creating an atmosphere of calm and understanding, where the client can reflect on life’s big questions and find peace in their own beliefs and outlook on life. We are here to make sure that no one feels alone on this personal journey towards the end of life.

In certain cases, we encourage clients to look into the possibility of a subsidy from Sygesikring Danmark, insurance and pension companies or other related health insurance schemes.
Private Health can advise that, in cases of terminal care, Sygesikring Danmark pays approximately DKK 12,000. To receive this benefit, various statements must be obtained from a doctor or hospital, and Private Health is happy to help with obtaining these. In all cases, we recommend that clients and/or relatives contact the organisations concerned themselves for further information.
Over the past year, Private Health has provided exceptional care for our elderly mother, with nurses, personal assistants and physiotherapists. With deep professional expertise and great humanity, they have brought security and warmth to everyday life. Beyond the healthcare itself, Private Health also makes sure that the home is always kept tidy, that rooms are aired, 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 in the year, they gave her targeted rehabilitation, so she is now stronger and more mobile than before. And perhaps even more importantly, they have rekindled her joy in life. Our mother now enjoys going for walks, visiting museums and meeting up with friends, always with Private Health by her side as a loving support.
My siblings and I are not always able to be there for our mother. That is why it is wonderful to know that we can always count on dedicated, professional and caring staff from Private Health, a company with plenty of warmth and soul. Thank you for all you do!

We have used Private Health for more than 8 months, with great pleasure and satisfaction.
We have nothing but good things to say about the care, professionalism and tireless problem-solving we have experienced throughout.
Whatever the length or nature of the task, Private Health has accommodated our requests, including the many urgent needs that arose during this time.
Every time, we received a prompt reply, suggested solutions and kind, patient staff with plenty of energy for our sick mother and our struggling father.
We warmly recommend Private Health. They have been the main reason that we, as relatives, have been able to get through a very difficult period.
Family in Hørsholm
I was looking for home care for my father during a holiday on Mols. Within just a few days, Private Health found a local carer who looked after my father. A very professional and super efficient service. They went to great lengths to find a solution for us in an area they do not normally cover. A pleasure, and warmly recommended.

Private Health helped me with rehabilitation, and it made a huge difference. I was met with care, calm and professional expertise, and I felt truly seen. Thank you for the support; it meant more than you know.
Client in Rudersdal
Dear Private Health and the whole team,
Thank you so much for stepping in during an acute and very critical situation for my mother and for our whole family. Your professionalism and care were fantastic and highly competent.
Our warmest recommendations.
Frederik
When our father became terminally ill, he wanted to spend his final days at home. We struggled to get public help and ran into long waiting times and the summer holidays.
Private Health and the whole team came to our rescue! Within a few days, they had put absolutely fantastic help and support in place, with visits and care every day, and they were incredibly flexible in quickly adapting the care as the illness progressed.
Thanks to Private Health and the fantastic, highly professional nurses, our father had the end of life he wished for.
Family in Nærum
After our father died, it was hard for our mother to be alone so much, and we could not cover daily visits to her ourselves. That is why it was a great support that Private Health, at very short notice, was able to help with 2 to 3 visits a week to our mother for a couple of months.
Pleasant visits with conversation and short walks gradually helped her move forward through that first difficult time.
Daughter, Louise
As we see it, care is not only about treatment. It is just as much about creating a sense of security, trust and dignity for our clients. That is why our values are rooted in the interplay between aesthetics, compassion and professionalism.
