What to do When a Loved One Dies

When a loved one dies, the family or friends must make decisions while pushing through the initial grief and shock.  When a death occurs at home while under hospice care, call the hospice care nurse and they will take it from there.  They can legally declare death and arrange for the body to be transported. If someone dies while not in medical or hospice care, call 911. When paramedics arrive, they will generally start resuscitation.  If the person has a “do not resuscitate order,” present that to the paramedics when they arrive.

You may call our office 24/7 and we can make arrangements on your behalf.  If your loved one hasn't Pre-Arranged their funeral and final resting, we are happy to walk you through the Funeral Services and/or cremation.  Please call us at 508-473-0513, if we may assist in any way.
