Some people are unclear about what a funeral director offers when arranging a funeral? Many are overwhelmed by practical, legal and financial decisions that have to be made during this time. Read more

WHEN SOMEONE DIES

Notifying the treating doctor first is important because the doctor must provide a Death Certificate which is the official registration of death, and is usually necessary before funeral arrangements can be completed.

PEOPLE TO NOTIY

Contact family and friends, doctor, Minister, funeral director, Medicare, Tax Office, banks, insurance companies, post office, electricity, gas company, telephone company, local council and your solicitor.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

Ask your funeral director about payment options such as installments. Was the deceased in a private health fund or did they have personal insurance, which can help with the cost of a funeral.
