Testimonials from our customers
We are very pleased and proud that we provide professional nursing care that makes a difference to both relatives and patients. Here, we have collected a selection of the feedback we have received. The quotes on this page are of course published with the permission of the individuals.
My experience with Privat Sygeplejerske ApS has been very professional and safe. Our private nurse was assigned to my parents and she got to know them quickly and gave them really good treatment and respect. It was really helpful to have a professional by your side, with whom you could go through the process and better understand how the treatment went. The program enabled my parents to stay in their own home for as long as possible. A warm recommendation to Privat Sygeplejerske ApS.

Great praise to Margit and her incredible team. My aunt received super-professional care from skilled nurses who also took good care of me as a relative. Thanks to the efforts of Privat Sygeplejerske ApS, my aunt had the best exit from life that she and her family could have hoped for.

We have benefited from Privat Sygeplejerske ApS for both our parents, who unfortunately died 1.5 years apart. It made it much easier for us to have elderly parents who wanted to be "carried" out of their own home and didn't want to be a bother anywhere. They didn't want our help. First of all, it was our mother, who had a hard time taking care of all her various diseases. First Margit came and helped us see the options we had - and then she sent Charlotte, an extremely caring and skilled nurse, whom we really liked. My mother was helped to visit the hospital, her medication was set correctly and she was taught to use her whistle. Her quality of life improved noticeably and Charlotte was also great at helping mum with personal care and a chat. We and our mother enjoyed it to the fullest. Unfortunately, our mother was hospitalized with a ruptured appendix - here we first had Charlotte in the process at the hospital, where she really stepped into character and helped us to get the doctors' words translated into something we could understand - and not least she got the family together, so we were all present when she breathed for the very last time. Charlotte really made a difference to us and helped us to say goodbye to our mother in a good and loving way. After our mother's death, our father "took over" Charlotte's care and help with daily tasks. He needed a loving person to help with the many different tasks he usually had our mother do - and for which he did not want our help. It became a wonderful friendship between the two of them, and our father - like our mother - received a lot of help, including visits to the hospital when he had to have a check-up for his bad kidneys. Although we tried to help our father where we could, it was just much easier for Charlotte. The two had developed a trusting friendship, which gave him a revival and a joy for life and the time after our mother's death. During the last period of talking about dialysis, another nurse was connected - in time for our father to get to know her. Pia was her name - also really kind and competent. Margit felt it was important that our father was comfortable with the visits, especially if they were to intensify over time. It was never necessary. Dad never made it to dialysis, but as late as the night our dad died, he was in touch with Charlotte - via text message. He was so pleased and comfortable with her. I never imagined that Privat Sygeplejerske ApS would make such a difference to my parents in their final years of life. For both of them, it was safe and pleasant to be visited and helped by a competent nurse who really went the extra mile to provide care. And it succeeded completely. We are deeply grateful and can highly recommend this service to anyone who has parents of older age and who would very much like to be on their own. Special thanks to Privat Sygeplejerske ApS, Margit, Charlotte, Pia, and all the others. You have made a huge difference to us.

It was a pleasure to use Privat Sygeplejerske ApS to care for my aunt in her final time. The nurses are skilled and empathetic, and they were a great help in the dialogue with the municipality and the doctor. They were just as professional in their contact with me as a relative. A pleasant and safe experience.

Professional, empathetic, flexible, kind home nurses! We are so glad we found them, they have been invaluable to us. Sad that it's necessary, but it is.

I just want to thank you for the fantastic help we got from Merete. my mother's surgery. It's been over a year now and it's been a difficult period here since then. But I can't imagine what it would have been like without your help - we as a family were very affected by the circumstances and didn't know what to do. The care shown to her husband at Merete's visit also helped him to be better at it. So thank you - many thanks - wish everyone got a "Merete"'s help when faced with such a difficult situation.

For anyone who may be in difficult life situations and needs support, help, care around one's loved ones, Privat Sygeplejerske can be a huge gift. We used this as an extra support during the night in the hospital, both in relation to the nursing task, care, professional input, an extra hand to hold during difficult nights, and not least for good conversations about the process while it was going on. It was a great reassurance for me as a relative when I couldn't be there myself. In addition, we received help from Privat Sygeplejerske for terminal care in our own home and this meant that the last time was as we had all wanted. This meant that I could only be a relative and that there were professional eyes to support the process, so that it was as gentle and as nice as it could possibly be. My experience has been that everyone's needs, physical, practical as well as psychological, have been taken care of with professionalism. I would recommend everyone to use a private nurse - it is the best decision I have ever made.

I want to thank you for your and your nurses' efforts. Everyone has done a very professional and humane job, which both my husband and I have enjoyed very much. At the same time that I am deeply unhappy to have lost my husband, the love of my life, I am grateful for the calm and painless death that you made possible for him to have in his own home in the summer cottage.

I found Privatsygeplejerske.dk on the web. The website gave a professional impression, reinforced in our first phone conversation, where I found you accommodating, listening, informative, and able to quickly perceive our needs. The first meeting with you and Anne Mette in my father's home was very trusting. We felt good chemistry with both of you, had great confidence in your expertise, and felt that the financial aspect discreetly did not take precedence. We were pretty clear that you had to make a profit from working with us, and in that respect 'run the shop', but we experienced a clear focus on and high standards for the nursing tasks.
In the time before I went back to Denmark to say goodbye to my father, I had contact with both you and Anne Mette by text and phone. It was invaluable for me to be kept updated and crucial that I arrived on time. You were both clear on your assessments and showed no fear of contact. When you wondered about things, like my father's wife's behavior, you asked me directly and helped to establish an open working environment with clear communication.
Anne Mette's presence in the course of my father's disease, professionalism, and care for all of us was outstanding. She stayed discreetly in the background much of the time, but was constantly aware of my father's follow-up needs and was constantly at the forefront. They were intense and demanding days in so many ways, and for all of us, it was reassuring and relieving that Anne Mette had the overview and was noticeably competent. The way she attended to my father's care needs while being attentive to the rest of us and our emotional state was soothing and did us all good.
Dear Margit - as you understand, I have only the very best recommendations for Privatsygeplejerske.dk. With such infinite help from you, my father had the best possible end to a meaningful life that so terribly should have been many years longer. Anne Mette is forever written in my heart. Her gentle nature and calm presence in the most demanding moment of my life so far were soothing to me in a way I cannot possibly describe.
Best regards and sincere thanks!
