What does a Dignity funeral director do?
Here at Abbey Funeral Directors in Hadleigh we are sometimes asked what a funeral director does, or, what does a typical day look like for a funeral director?
Support the family ...
Abbey Funeral Directors ensures that at least one person remains on call outside of normal opening hours, meaning someone is on hand 24 hours a day. So no matter what time of day a loved one passes, one of our funeral directors will be available to collect the deceased and begin offering support to the family.
Care for the departed is integral to the role of a funeral director, but of equal importance are those left behind. We have a duty of care that involves reassuring families and helping to ease their burden. Those experiencing grief and loss will have important decisions to make regarding funeral arrangements, and our team is there to help them to reach those decisions with confidence.
