A mortuary must be private and secure. Here is how controlled doors and a record protect families and the hospital.
Key takeaways
- Authorised staff only
- A separate viewing door
- A clear entry record
- Dignity protected
01The problem
A mortuary holds the dead and the trust of grieving families. Mix-ups, unauthorised entry and unanswered questions about who handled what cause pain and disputes. A controlled door for authorised staff only, a separate controlled door for family viewing, and an entry record give the hospital a clear answer to the hardest questions.
