Today we were delighted to welcome staff from Oaklands Care Home - Barchester Healthcare and Cambridge City Crematorium & Cemetery to our Dispelling the Myths seminar.
The day began with a guided tour of the crematorium, Jenny explained the procedures involved in the crematoria, while addressing some of the most common myths and misconceptions surrounding the profession.
Next we took everyone to Weyman’s for a tour of our branch where attendees got to see the complete journey of someone in our care, from the moment they are brought into our care, through every stage of the funeral arrangements and preparation, to the funeral service itself, and finally the ashes process, including how ashes are respectfully managed and returned to families.
Our aim is to give those working in the care industry a greater understanding of what happens to the people they have cared for after they leave their care. By removing the mystery surrounding death and funerals, we provide an open and honest insight into what happens behind the scenes in our funeral homes and crematoria, helping to answer questions and dispel common myths.
If you think your organisation would benefit from attending one of our Dispelling the Myths seminars, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch with Maria to book a place on our next seminar [email protected]
