There are colleges that people go to for mortuary science degrees to work in funeral homes. Working in a morgue would also require some college for jobs that actually involve working with the bodies. I'm sure an internet search would answer all your questions.

You would need to call the cemetary office where the body is buried OR the one you want to have the body reburied at.

Call the company that issued the policy.  They will send you a package with the company forms that need to be completed in order to get paid.\n\nYou will need:\n1. the policy\n2. the death certificate - ask the funeral home to provide.\n3. the insurance company forms.\n\nOnce complete, they will review and if straightforward, the insurance companies usually issue you a checkbook that is good up to the amount of the policy proceeds.  You can keep the money in this account and write checks when you need them or write one big check to yourself and deposit in your own accounts.

Several places to contact.  The funeral home may have a suggestion.\n\nI know of several churches that have had grave sites left to them going unused.\n\nCremation is much cheaper.  It doesn't require an expensive casket, and brings an equality to funerals that is not matched by burials.

Apply at a local HMO or a teaching hospital for a position. HMO's often hire people for reception work and after being there for a while you can apply for other positions which they will train you for. A teaching hospital has lots of great opportunities because they will allow you to be trained for some positions and also you can go to school and they will reimburse you for any tuition. Some hospitals require you pass the course to be reimbursed. There is a greater opportunity in a teaching hospital to move around to other departments too.

In most cases, I believe you have to be a licensed embalmer or funeral professional to purchase embalming fluid, because it is often abused by drug users.

The next of kin usually has to pay...........I would talk to a mortuary (funeral home) and talk to them about payment plans, and inexpensive means of burial or cremation. As for a ceremony, there is nothing in the rule books that say you can't have it at home. I would ask the funeral director first and find out for sure....good luck

That would depend on state and funeral home....it varies\n\njust call where they are now and let them know that you need transportation arrangements made quickly if they have passed on and arranged if they will be passing soon.\n\nI am sorry for your loss..and what you are going through.\nPrayers and thoughts are with you.

Usually you are taken to the funeral home. Then you are either buried or cremated.

that's pretty simple. Just ask whoever is in charge at the cemetery. They should know the answer. You could also plant a tree of remembrance in your own yard. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your difficult time.

i recommend calling the state she plans to be licensed in, as some states differ on their requirements.  Also, there is no longer separate degrees of funeral director and embalmer, now when you get licenesed, it is a combined degree.  She will have to take all of the funeral directing and embalming classes, then take the National Board and the state licensing board exams.  If you go to www.mortuaryschools.com, it has a complete listing of every mortuary school in the US.  Good luck, this is a wonderful, rewarding career!

I once worked as an assistant with the coroner's office. Somehow, picking up scattered teeth with a pair of tweezers off the interstate at 3:00AM following a horrific car crash, didn't seem like my idea of a career.  I stayed with the office for about two years (more from fascination than anything else) and saw some of the most bizarre and tragic things I think I will ever see. I'm now a funeral director ... go figure :)\nPeace.
