Course Description: NOVICE
Yesterday’s prediction for rise in cremation is upon us. Seasoned professionals have been testifying for years that this trend would overtake the industry. Torres welcomes you to the NXT Generation of funeral service by sharing ideas on how to create your own “HOME FUNERAL EXPERIENCE” centralized on the body to help families to fill the void and disconnect between the time of death and cremation or burial. This guided experience is perfect for funeral providers who are seeking to add new and innovative services that modern families want.
The “FADE” program was designed with cremation families in mind. This new twist on a century’s old concept will offer insight to Funeral Directors and Embalmers of all experience levels. This course focuses on ethics, arrangement counseling, marketing, cosmetic postmortem rejuvenation, legal authorizations, and how to legally overcome the challenges of preparing the un-embalmed body. The seminar is sectioned into two parts:
1. for the Embalmer and
2. for the Funeral Director, Owner or Manager
The course bridges the gap between the prep room and the arrangement room offering staff insight to challenges that may be overcome by implementing standard procedure into the process of caring for bereaved families.
Participants will also learn how to include this service in their general price list. This course is highly interactive for participants and challenges the professional to create their own version of the FADE and empower families.
