Welcome to the new NAFD One-day Mortuary Management Training Workshop, which has been designed and delivered in partnership with the North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust.
This is the first one day online workshop delivered by the NAFD and is aimed at supporting funeral professionals in achieving excellence in mortuary management.
As the UK Government continues to scrutinise the standards and quality of every stakeholder involved in the care and preparation of the deceased, the objective of this course is to introduce quality management processes and procedures specific to mortuary operations, to ensure that all NAFD funeral businesses understand how to achieve consistency of quality managed standards and monitoring for the benefit of continuous business improvement.
This course will be completed in a one-day 6 hour online workshop with a series of presentations and online assessment providing a final demonstration of proof of learning. The course is delivered by an experienced NHS pathologist and trainer. The four key learning outcomes of this workshop are:
- Understand the principles of good quality management,
- Learn about what constitutes ‘good’ quality managed mortuary practice,
- Understand evidence-based mortuary records associated with the care of the deceased,
- Understand the process by which health and safety is managed in a mortuary
Delegates will receive an NAFD Certificate of Training on successful completion of this one-day course.
