Repatriation of Mortal Remains

International Corporate Health Leadership Council

Repatriation of mortal remains (RMR) can be logistically very challenging and emotionally taxing for those individuals charged with the task. If the process involves an organization (i.e., corporation, school, government) seamless coordination between multiple stakeholders, domestically and abroad, is paramount to a successful and timely outcome. In this whitepaper, Patrick Deroose, RN, outlines “best practices” in this very unique space where he is considered a world subject matter expert. He has personally overseen thousands of RMR’s around the world over the last three decades.
