Private home hospice

What is home hospice?

Home hospice is a specialized form of care offered to seriously and terminally ill clients in the comfort of their own home. The purpose of home hospice is to allow the client to spend their final days in comfortable and familiar surroundings, surrounded by family and loved ones, while receiving the necessary medical and emotional support.

Why choose home hospice over traditional hospice facilities?

Choosing home hospice gives the client and their family a deeper sense of peace and security. Instead of having to adapt to new and often unfamiliar surroundings, the client can remain in their own home, where memories and love are deeply rooted.

Furthermore, home hospice allows for more personalized and tailored care, where the care team can adapt to the client's unique needs and wishes. This creates a more holistic and human-centered approach to end-of-life care.

    How does home hospice work with Private Nurse?

    • Terminal declaration: When a person is seriously ill or dying and life-prolonging treatment is no longer appropriate, a doctor issues a terminal declaration. This declaration gives access to a range of benefits, including free medication and the possibility of caregiver leave for relatives. Private Nurse will help you obtain this terminal declaration and arrange for the necessary medication, which is free of charge with the declaration.

    • Assistive devices and medication: We arrange to pick up the medication immediately and order the necessary aids, which often include a hospital bed, a pressure-relieving mattress, and various items for medication administration.

    • Room designWe design the chosen room in your home with a focus on the right sound, calm light and a safe atmosphere. We incorporate aesthetics into our care to create peace and tranquility, and make sure the room doesn't look like a hospital room.

    • The role of the nurseOur nurses have overall responsibility and observe the client intensively. They relieve pain and anxiety so that the client can move calmly and restfully through life. They also provide direct care, including bathing, hair care, oral hygiene, changing clothes and more.

    • Special needs: If the client has special needs, we discuss these with them before they move into their final days. Our primary nursing task is to be with the client and relieve them and their relatives to ensure a good and peaceful last time together.

    We've had good words to say

    • "Dear PrivateNurse and the whole team,

      Thank you very much for stepping in in an acute and very critical situation for my mother and for our whole family. Your professionalism and care/parish was amazing and very competent.

      Highest recommendations from here."

    • "I can highly recommend Private Nurse, who at a few weeks' notice jumped in and helped us during a stressful illness with ALS, where we suddenly needed professional nursing assistance for my father. In such a stressful situation, it is important that communication is professional and controlled, and that the nurses are calm and competent. This was definitely the case with Private Nurse. We were always in close contact with their nurse coordinator and all the nurses who came to my father were skilled, responsible and empathetic. It gave us the peace of mind we needed in our final days. So my warmest recommendations from here. "

    • "In connection with various severe complications after my mother had hip surgery, we had Johanne assigned to us as a private nurse. Johanne managed the extensive medication and not least pain relief, and my mother gained confidence in Johanne already after the first visit. The professional help that Johanne has provided, her care and general sympathetic nature has meant a lot to my mother and the rest of the family during a difficult time. Thank you so much for you, Johanne."

    • "After our father's death, it was difficult for our mother to be alone a lot and we could not cover visits to her every day ourselves. Therefore, it was a great support that Private Nurse was able to help at very short notice with 2-3 weekly visits to our mother for a couple of months.

      Pleasant visits with chats and short walks helped to gradually help her through the first difficult time".

    • "In 2022, I fell ill and was hospitalized. My son, who lives abroad, had been recommended to contact Johanne from Private Nurse, who came to see me at the hospital the same day. Here she and my children made sure that I could return home to my own house with private nursing and physiotherapists around the clock. I am convinced that if I had stayed in the hospital, I would never have come home again. ....

      With the help of intensive training, care, home cooking and intellectual companionship, I've gone from being virtually disabled to not just walking again, but walking WELL! I sleep at night because my days are filled with conversations, road trips and flavorful food.

      My nurses are not just nurses who come and go. They are kind, skilled, helpful, interesting and interested. They remember all my little habits and things that are important to me. Overall, having them with me means that my life is enriched with care. They make me feel like a whole person again, not just an old man.

      We talk a lot, converse. I think our conversations keep my head going. Because I've been surrounded by a lot of people all my life, including all my coworkers through my work. I retired at 92 and never had a problem until a year ago when I was hospitalized with an infection. My nurses from Private Nurse helped me get back to my life and because of them I am once again attending communions, bridge nights and other family gatherings. Last month I celebrated my 97th birthday with family from all over Europe.

      One of the things that has made me the happiest is that I feel that my nurses are telling the truth when they express their joy in coming to me. In fact, I feel it, that they like my company. I appreciate immensely all our conversations about climate change, the world and nowadays about the entry of robots into the political agenda, AI. You've almost become like family, besides all seven of my children and 32 grandchildren and great-grandchildren."

    • "When our father became terminally ill, he wanted to spend his last days at home and we struggled to get public assistance, but ran into long waits and summer vacations.

      Private Nurse and the entire team were our saviors! In just a few days, they set up absolutely amazing help and support with visits and care every day and were incredibly flexible in quickly adapting care as the disease progressed.

      Thanks to Private Nurse and the amazing and highly professional nurses, our father got the end of life he wanted."
