Cold Storage or Mortuary Facility
Morgues are areas in hospitals and medical centres where the bodies of the deceased are stored and autopsied. Mortuaries are where the bodies of the deceased are prepared for funeral and burial.
A mortuary is a room or area, often in a hospital, where dead bodies are kept. You can also use the word mortuary to talk about a funeral home. When a person dies in a hospital, his body is usually moved to a mortuary before an autopsy takes place. A mortuary is also where a body is kept until its buried or cremated.
We have our private mortuaries in major metros in India, so you can be assured that your loved one is kept in a safe and sanitised environment while in our care. When your loved one passes away, call us on our 24 hour numbers and we will collect the body from the place of death and keep it in our private mortuary till a date when you would like to have the funeral. If you wish to have the funeral rites performed at a later date we would need to view the body and then advise you if an embalming is required, for further preservation.
Morgues are places where reportable deaths are investigated by a coroner, while mortuaries are the places where dead bodies are stored temporarily for a range of reasons, including autopsies and preparations for burial such as embalming.In many countries, the family of the deceased must make the burial within 72 hours (three days) of death, but in some other countries it is usual that burial takes place some weeks or months after the death. This is why some corpses are kept as long as one or two years at a hospital or in a funeral home.
