Congratulations on the great level of service you are giving to the clients it is a vocation rather than just a job.Pat Timmins Funeral Director Dudley West Midlands UK
I'm 16 and I never thought I would ever be passionate about a job catering for resting souls. I do a Tafe course which is located in a hospital. Porterige (transport of patients both living and post-mortem) is one of my duties and a very favored one. Something I learnt was, it is such a privilege to be able to do one of the last honourable things there is to do for a human being. Funeral directing is definitely something that I am very interested in. Somebody has to care for the dead, and I would be honoured to take up the role of a funeral director.
I know im asking randomly but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
@Nasir Kody Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
WE know bereaved families will be cared for with the upmost respect, that is shown by this lady in her professionalism. A great role model and ambassador....
Hi, I'm 15 and I'd love to be an undertaker when I'm older. It's something I've always wanted to do. I think I have the correct mind set and respect for it. I'm extremely sympathetic, and empathetic. I'd love to work in a funeral home. Thank you
Sounds like you'd be a really good fit for the industry! Have you thought about contacting your local funeral home to see if you could spend a day there learning more about it? I highly recommend it! Good luck :)
I've known several teens who think they want to join the industry, so they contact local funeral homes as a possible apprentice and learn to do hair and makeup to start. I feel it's also necessary before u spend money on schooling, just to make sure that it's the right fit for u.
@@melissademianchuk2656 I really liked helping people and being a funeral director helped open a lot of doors later. It does make your resume stick out...even in the airline industry. Dislike....being payed peanuts to work endless hours. Being a Funeral Director is a 24/7 job and if you don't own an interest in the business owners try to get away with paying you ridiculously low wages for the time you put in.
The qualities you need are having a great passion for giving the highest level of care to the deceased and their families remember we only have one chance to get the funeral right that meets the families expectations it is the most rewarding job in the world I would not want to do anything else be prepared to start at the bottom every day you learn something new, one thing that you will find is that people who work in the funeral industry are friendly and kind.If you have the passion and commitment to the job you will do well.Best wishes Pat Timmins Funeral Director UK
here in the US you need to go through school to work in mortuary science (at least for a mortician) and to be a funeral director you need to go through school as well, but I don't know if it's regulated. I wanted to work as a crematory operator (not working with embalming or anything, just working the machine) and you still need to be put through school to be licensed. it's nice to know that in NZ there isn't a whole lot of regulation for people wanting to work in a funeral home
My degree consisted of a Bachelors of Applied Science. To own the business that’s what’s needed. There’s also a vocational certification to be an embalmer. But in smaller areas, it’s Funeral Directors aka Morticians (the term runs hand in hand) doing everything. It takes education here. One can’t just walk into a funeral home, and just say “hey I want to be a funeral director”. Nope not here in the US. Im in IL by the way. When I saw her age of 21, it almost floored me. But then when she said she was in NZ, it made me think their rules and regulations are nowhere as strict as here. To be an embalmer you have to have a license. To be a funeral director/Mortician it’s a Bachelors degree. Some mortuary schools exist around the country. I’m not sure what they graduate with. I didn’t go that route.
If I was a funeral director I would change the name to a traditional name the Undertaker would have a black suit purple gloves and purple tie and the undertakers music for the funeral home
That Rolls Royce Hearse dates back to 1970, was owned by W.H. Tongue Funerals, in Auckland. Gee & Hickton bought it, and restored it to its current Glorious Condition.
