Embalming, in a very basic definition, is the act of preserving a body by replacing body fluids with a preserving solution (usually an aldehyde and/or alcohol as a solvent). Many funeral homes will not allow a public viewing unless embalming is performed. It is not a state or federal law that embalming be required.
An embalming report is prepared before the procedure begins. This report aids as a learning and measuring tool of a known or unknown condition is evaluated. During and after the embalming the report is updated concerning changes, improvements and problems that may occur prior to the disposition.
Fill in the deceaseds personal information, including name, date of birth, and date of death. Provide details about the embalming service, including the embalmers name and license number. Indicate the date and time of embalming performed. Describe the methods and chemicals used in the embalming process.
The goals of embalming are to sanitize, preserve, and restore a corpse for transport or display.
How long does it last? Embalming is not permanent as it only delays the natural process of death. Typically, it will preserve the body for around a week, but factors such as condition of the body and temperature conditions may affect this.
