Risk Management Through Documentation of Crematory Inspections

Written by Bill Sucharski

If a family selects cremation services through your funeral home, and you ordinarily send your most readily available employee to deliver human remains to the nearest and/or least expensive crematory and never think much more about itŠthink again. Risk Management Through Documentation of Crematory Inspections explains why it is imperative that you become familiar with your crematory provider, their facility, their policies and procedures, and their operator. The article also includes specific areas of concern that you should inspect and document. Bill Sucharski is a funeral director and has owned and operated Philadelphia Crematories, Inc., of Philadelphia, PA, for 11 years. He is a certified crematory operator and an active member of the Cremation Association of North America.
