It is no secret that many funeral homes in the United States are searching for additional staff.  It also appears that those institutions that instruct in Mortuary Science are having a hard time attracting students, probably somewhat due to the otherwise booming American economy.

In an article and video that you can read and see here we learn that the country of New Zealand is seeing a rise – of up to 50% – in this years mortuary studies class.

It is an interesting news article and, in my opinion, shows that New Zealand seems to be making strides in “professionalizing” funeral service.
