NY Funeral Juris case studies

The New York Funeral Jurisprudence examination is the law-and-rules component that New York State requires of candidates seeking a funeral directing license. It is written for people who already have the embalming and funeral service training - apprentices, students finishing a mortuary science program, and licensed directors moving into New York - and who now need to show they can apply New York's funeral directing statute and the Department of Health regulations to real arrangements. The exam is organized around four areas: funeral directing law and regulation; funeral service practice and ethics; vital records and death certification; and public health and sanitary requirements. Expect questions on licensure and registration, funeral firm and establishment requirements, preneed and at-need contracts, consumer disclosures, who may control disposition, the funeral director's duties when completing and filing a death certificate, permits for disposition, transportation and embalming, and communicable disease precautions. The NY Funeral Juris case studies are 5 cases and about 3,020 words.
