Career questions tagged funeralhome
I truly respect and admire the dedication and compassion required to be a Mortician/Undertaker/Funeral-Director, as my research into funeral service has revealed. To be forthright, I was hoping to conduct a brief interview consisting of just 8 questions for a project assignment by my teacher at LoneStar College. The funeral service profession has always intrigued me, and I wanted to explore whether it might be a path I could pursue. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find someone to interview considering how busy their schedule in this industry is. It would be awesome if my questions could be answered here. I have posted the questions below.

Information about the Funeral Home business?
I plan on attending mortuary school after I graduate this year but I'm confused about all the career branches associated with the Funeral Home business. What I personally want to someday do is work in the funeral home, assist in picking up bodies, transporting to the crematory, embalming/makeup but I'm not too sure about talking with families about their plan for funerals and dealing with sadness and guilt, although I'm open to it. What exactly are the steps to get started? What is my major called? and how long would schooling take? #forensics #mortuaryScience #mortician #funeral #FuneralHome #embalming #forensic-pathology
