| Action Summary | The Board of Funeral Directors and Embalmers is recommending that 18 VAC 65-20-10 et seq. be amended to modify the requirements for a change of ownership, to provide additional access to licensure by endorsement, to clarify the scope of practice for courtesy card holders, and to require persons who handle remains with a surface transportation and removal service registration to have OSHA training. Other recommendations for the preparation room and its equipment and for documentation of embalming came from a task force on the inspection process. During the development of regulations, the Board intends to receive comment on the need to require continuing education renewal and on the definition of a branch establishment. It will also consider any other issues raised during public comment on the Notice of Intended Regulatory Action. |
