Details You Should Know When Picking Mortuary Jobs

If you are looking into mortuary jobs, you must first decide if you can physically, mentally, and emotionally handle the job tasks you will be required to perform. You must work with cadavers, and that is not something just anyone can do.

There are many different positions at a mortuary. You could work as a hair stylist, cosmetologist, mortuary's assistant, funeral director, or even as a member of the support staff.

If you don't have a mortuary degree but are looking for a way to get into the business, working as a member of the support staff is an excellent way to get a foot in the door. This type of position could include things like grounds keeping, office work, and attending to minor funeral details. You can contact area funeral homes and inquire about support staff openings.

Another popular opportunity is working as a mortuary transport technician. You could be hired by a third-party contractor or directly by the funeral home. You would be responsible for transporting the deceased to the coroner's office or to the funeral home from their place of death. You will need to be prepared to deal with grieving families and answer their questions. This will require you to be professional and sympathetic at all times.

If you plan on making funeral services a career, most states require an apprenticeship in order to get your license. This is a great way to learn all about the business and obtain new skills.

If you already have a degree in mortuary science, you are able to work as a funeral director or embalming technician. Funeral directors arrange many details of funeral services, which can include but are not limited to casket and urn sales, floral arrangements, memorial table setups, and other details. You will be required to help families pre-plan funeral services and you will often need to console the grieving families and friends of the deceased.
