Reporting a death will often depend on whether the deceased was under Hospice care. If such patient dies, the Hospice nurse on-call is notified by the family member or finder. Otherwise it is reported to police, who will dispatch paramedics to confirm such death. Police will then remain with the family and remains until the remains are removed, either by the funeral home or the Medical Examiner/Coroner. If the death is suspicious the police or Coroner will call in homicide detectives to investigate.
