Two Ways FPS Works With Funeral Homes

Family Referrals

When a family asks about independent autopsy services or questions the cause of death, you can refer them directly to FPS. We take it from there. Our team contacts the family, walks them through their options, and handles every step of the process. You stay focused on serving the family through the arrangements. We handle the forensic side.

On-Site Autopsy Services

FPS can perform private autopsies directly at your facility. We bring the board-certified forensic pathologist, technician, all equipment, and supplies. We pay a facility rental fee for use of your space. When we leave, the space is exactly as we found it. Your team is never pulled into the process.

What FPS Handles

We Manage Every Detail

Funeral homes that partner with FPS never have to coordinate the forensic side. That is entirely our responsibility. Here is what we take care of:

Your team refers to the family or opens the door. We handle the rest.
