Before a body is released from the Funeral Home, clearance is done at the Out Patient Department and a Permit issued in the Records Office.
The Funeral Home also receives bodies from other facilities for preservation. For external bodies brought from home, a letter from the area Chief or a Police OB is first issued before the body can be received for preservation. The death Permit is issued by the Chief for external bodies brought from home. For external bodies from other facilities we do not issue the Death Permit as well. However, a permit can be issued at our Funeral Home when a postmortem is conducted.
