After Death Home Care

A growing number of Australians with terminal illness are choosing to stay at home. This is made possible with the support of family, caregivers, palliative care providers and friends.

Once the person dies, the funeral director is called and all caregiving duties provided cease. The deceased is transferred into the care of the funeral home. The funeral director meets with family to make all funeral arrangements and the funeral is conducted.

There is another option:-

To continue the caregiving after death. After Death Home Care

In this workshop our team of funeral educators will equip you with the knowledge and skill to continue to provide care for your loved one at home after death. It will provide you with a knowledge of the funeral industry, the skills to decide how much funeral care you are able to provide yourself and what services to employ the funeral director for.

Even if after death care is a service you prefer to leave to your chosen funeral director. This workshop will assist you in knowing the right questions to ask and the right funeral director to employ to care for your loved one.
