Important Notice

As a result of customer feedback concerning the availability of HSE products, Dandy Booksellers has decided to now supply all L Series, HSG Series and HSR Series products on a print-on-demand (POD) basis. POD products are normally produced within one working day of the order being received, and are shipped immediately upon completion. Shipping is free on orders to the UK mainland. These publications are produced under licence by Dandy Booksellers and contain the same content as the HSE versions but, for copyright reasons, our own covers, which may differ from those illustrated.
For a small extra charge POD products can be customised and co-branded with your own logo or message, such as the date and location of a training course. Please call us on 020 7624 2993 for details.

HSG283 Managing Infection Risks When Handling The Deceased

HSG283 Managing Infection Risks When Handling The Deceased


£19.80
This publication provides guidance on managing the risks of infection when handling the deceased. It is aimed at those in:
  • The mortuary and post mortem room - anatomical pathology technologists (APTs) and pathologists
  • Funeral services - funeral directors and their staff, including embalmers
  • Exhumations - cemetery employees, Environmental Health Officers, archaeological researchers and redevelopment/construction companies
  • Those who come into contact with the deceased through their work activities, such as ambulance workers, the police, General Practitioners or porters/domestic cleaners

The guidance is structured to reflect the pathway of the deceased from death through to burial, cremation and where required, exhumation. It considers the risks of infection that may be present along that pathway.

This title is a revision and merging of 2 publications:
  • Safe working and the prevention of infection in the mortuary and post-mortem room 2003; and
  • Controlling the Risks of Infection at Work from Human Remains
