A funeral home provides a range of services. This will depend to some degree on how many staff they have and what staff are licensed for. Each funeral home should be licensed as a funeral establishment and have a licensed funeral director or mortician. A funeral home generally provides professional services to a family to arrange a funeral or cremation. This can be from a simple, basic cremation or burial through to an elaborate full-service traditional funeral. Funeral homes will also provide services such as assisting with the completion of death notification paperwork and bereavement counseling. Most funeral homes also sell funeral merchandise such as caskets, urns, memory books, grave markers, etc. The legislation governing funeral homes does vary state by state, so you do need to check local funeral laws specific to your state.
