When someone dies in hospital

If a person dies in hospital, staff can help you with the arrangements and will often contact your chosen funeral director on your behalf.

Make use of the rooms they have available for you and other loved ones to gather in. Don’t feel rushed and accept any support offered to you by the hospital’s health professionals. They are experienced in situations like this and can often be some of the best people to turn to.

The next few days will be very difficult and filled with decision-making. Remember that it’s totally okay to ask friends and family for help at any stage.
