Mortuary Answering Services
The mortuary answering service providers that we work with handle calls from different mortuaries and funeral homes across the nation, 24-hour-a-day, 7 days a week. The answering service operators have immediate access to your mortuary's individual information and instructions each time a call comes in on your line, thereby providing a seamless integration with your own staff.
The time immediately following the death of a loved one is usually marked by days of intense sorrow and emotional stress. Mortuary Answering Services understand the need for a greater degree of care and consideration when handling such delicate calls. Their operators are sensitive to your client's and potential client's needs during this time of vulnerability and raw emotion, and they know that just one inconsiderate word or ill thought out response can easily offend or hurt and drive your client right into the arms of your competition.
This is the difference between the average telephone answering service and one that is specifically designed to deal with the unique needs of a Mortuary.
Their professional operators are specifically trained to work delicately with your callers and quickly relay those important calls and information to the appropriate on-call member of your mortuary. They will send your messages via email, fax, pager, or by calling you personally, depending on your explicit request.

Why you need a Mortuary Answering Service?
Consider the following example:
Ryan is the owner of a small mortuary in an area that already hosts three other funeral homes and mortuaries. Because he wanted to be available to his potential clients after normal business hours, Ryan signed up with a local generalized answering service to handle his after-hours calls. He began noticing that after-hours and weekend requests for service were dropping off, but wasn't sure why, until one of his clients called his office during office hours to complain about the inconsiderate and rather "cold" treatment she had received from his answering service the night before.
Ryan decided to investigate the quality of service his clients were receiving from his answering service. He called his business that evening, pretending to be a very distressed potential client and requested immediate help with arrangements for his deceased relative. Ryan was appalled at the lack of sincere compassion or desire to help displayed by the operator. She appeared to be following a very strict script from which she would not vary, not even to address an uncommon request. It was as if she was an automated, pre-programmed robot!
What could Ryan do?
Ryan did some research and learned that there were many answering services available that were created explicitly to address the unique needs of a Mortuary. After placing a bid request through this site, he found the ideal solution to his needs, and now a professional operator, well trained in compassionate, sensitive service is handling Ryan's after-hours calls. When his new Mortuary Answering Service answers his phones, their operators show by their responses that they are working for Ryan's Mortuary and that they are representing his business! Ryan's after-hours requests for service increased dramatically after making this switch, and now his business is growing and flourishing.
Complaints from dissatisfied callers on Monday morning are bad enough, but don't let those complaints include how your after-hours operator handled your calls!
Mortuary Answering Services know that if your phones go unanswered, or if they aren't answered professionally, your competition will be receiving your calls. They don't want your client's first impression to be the last!
By choosing a specialized Mortuary Answering Service you can expect the following level of service:
- Calls are handled with concern, respect and care
- Operators are professional, courteous and empathetic
- Calls are screened and questions are asked in an appropriate and sensitive manner
