I shouldn’t just start talking about the fact that there are many business alive in the world, from farming mushrooms to building rovers that crawl distant planets, where some things are charged a price with a profit in mind. Medical care is hardly fair, when a billing without notice, for 20 dollars is given just to deliver prescribed medications per single dose, up to the room. Lets not forget that hospitals exist both as for-profit and not-for-profit. I’m sure there is a strong argument concerning the M.D., RN’s and C.N.A’s that handled patient care. I suspect that Mr. Slocum forgets that it isn’t a funeral home that helps people–it’s a Funeral Director; but then I shouldn’t be surprised that he can’t see the parallel between a funeral care establishment and a medical one and that’s just it–he must be refusing to see that in today’s times Funeral Directors are board certified graduates from an accredited college. And instead of seeking out mistakes of simple charges he should be seeking out unlicensed practitioners and going to the state board. Then he wouldn’t be helping himself by selling some useless books. Because, I seem to remember, that it is the professional Funeral Directors’ that teach the public what is to be expected of us: if we miss-represent, miss-handle or conduct mal-practice we all pay the price, so as a board certified practitioner myself, I have a lot to loose if I’m not truthful with every account in my rendering of funeral care.
