Creepy Nursing Skills: Post-Mortem Care and Using a Body Bag

The body of a deceased person is always treated with respect. Nursing staff should also consider the patient's cultural and religious beliefs when providing Post-Mortem Care. 1. Provide privacy throughout the process. 2. Obtain a death pack or gather supplies. 3. Wash hands and put on gloves. 4. Close the eyes. 5. If the resident wore dentures, place them in the mouth. If unable to do so, put them in a labeled denture cup to go with the body. 6. Give a complete bed bath. 7. Dress the body in a clean gown and put a pad in the perineal area. 8. Depending on policy and instructions of the coroner, tubes or lines may or may not be removed. Check before removing any of them. 9. Depending on policy, wrap the body in a sheet. 10. Place the body in a plastic bag designated for the purpose. 11. Attach identification or ensure that there is a tag or bracelet on the body. 12. Close the bag, tie the zipper shut, and slide the body onto a morgue cart, with the assistance of co-workers.
