Basics You Should Know When Picking Jobs In Mortuary

If you are wondering about mortuary jobs, the first thing to think about is whether you can handle the tasks that go along with the job. It is physically, mentally, and emotionally draining and not everyone can handle working with cadavers every day.

There are different areas of a mortuary you can choose to work in. Most mortuaries have a cosmetologist, mortuary's assistant, and funeral director to name a few.

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 have a degree in mortuary science already then you can work as an embalming technician or funeral director. As a funeral director, you will arrange many of the details at funeral services, such as urn and casket sales, memorial table setups, and floral arrangements. You will need to help pre-plan funerals and often help grieving families.
