What is the funeral home's role at the time of death?

After being contacted by the hospice nurse, a representative from the funeral home will take your loved one into their care.

The representative will generally introduce themselves to the family and give an idea of the next steps to expect.

The representative will then respectfully transport your loved one to the funeral home.

Following transport, generally, the funeral home will call the caregiver to set up a time for the family to make final arrangements.
