This article delves into the often-hidden realities of the mortuary and funeral home industry. Morticians and embalmers reveal shocking truths about their work, including accidental injuries to deceased individuals during embalming, the graphic nature of the process, and the challenges they face handling bodies unprepared for funerary rites.
Morticians And Funeral Directors Are Spilling The Creepy, Sad, And Uncomfortable Secrets No One KnowsIt's part of life — losing a loved one and seeing them go through the funeral process, but few of us can say we truly understand what happens behind the scenes at a mortuary and funeral home . That's probably for the best, as we are preoccupied with grief and doing what we can to ensure our loved one is properly put to rest.
"The embalmer and I had to remove the materials ourselves, taking great pains to keep the blood vessels intact to help ensure a better embalming process. It was a painstaking, time-involved process, and it still changed how we were able to embalm the person. But there was NO WAY that any of us would tell the family or visitation/funeral attendees how hard we worked.
What do they do to the body if its a closed casket funeral? Do they still dress the deceased up and such?"How the body is dressed during a closed-casket service largely depends on what the family wants to do. However, the embalmed bodies I’ve seen usually wear a long-sleeved, zipped-up outfit that looks like a bee-keeper suit. The suit protects the deceased’s clothing and the casket from damage should there be any leaking of embalming fluid or other decomposition.
"If it was a traumatic death and I could not restore the body , the body would be in a pouch, laid in the casket, and the bed cranked all the way down. The overthrow would be on top of the pouch so the family would see nothing but upholstery. I thought that was more respectful than seeing a black plastic bag.""These devices — called memory tubes — store a slip of paper with vital information about the person in the casket .
