First Steps
Report
When someone dies it is very important to contact a Funeral Director. Birrell Corrance Funeral Directors prides itself on being able to offer a 24 hour service, 365 days a year, providing help and advice on what needs to be done and by whom. With over many years of experience we have encountered nearly all situations.
Registering a Death
Report
Once the Doctor or Hospital has issued the Medical Certificate (form 11), the Next Of Kin or Applicant must register the death within 8 days at the Registry Office anywhere in Scotland, some offices may wish you to make an appointment. The Registrar will issue you with a white document (form 14) required by the funeral director for burial or cremation.
Death Occurs At Home
Report
If the death was expected, as the deceased had been ill for some time, it would be normal to contact their Doctor, who would then visit to certify that death had occurred and determine the cause.
This may not happen immediately as the Doctor may be in his / her surgery, or death may happen in the middle of the night, in which case you may decide to wait until morning before calling out the Doctor or alternatively call 999 and upon the police arriving at the home they will call upon a police doctor to allow legal paperwork to be signed and then be released into the funeral director's care.
