In Times of Bereavement

If Death Occurs At Home

  1. Telephone the GP surgery if death occurs between 8am and 6.30pm outside of this time contact 111 who will visit to confirm that death has taken place.
  2. Contact a funeral director.
  3. Medical Certificate of Death if provided by the GP will be e-mailed to the local registry office upon completion (by the surgery).
  4. Contact the Registrars office to make an appointment and take the Medical Certificate of Death to the Registrars Office, (together with the deceased's Medical Card and Birth Certificate, if available) for the area in which the death took place. Alternatively you can register by declaration at any convenient Registrars Office but certificates will not be available as these will have to be posted to you a few days later.
  5. The Registrar will normally issue a Green coloured certificate for you to give to your funeral director who will look after necessary arrangements for the funeral. The Registrar will also issue a white notification certificate for the DSS. They will also enquire as to the number of Certified Copies you require for dealing with the deceased finances (a fee is payable for each copy).

If The Death Occurs In Hospital

  1. Contact a funeral director to inform him his services are required.
  2. Collect the certificate from the hospital then follow 4 to 5 as above

Note For Cremation

Your funeral director will usually liaise directly with the surgery regarding the additional certification required.
