When a passing occurs

What happens next in Lake Elsinore.

The process depends on where the passing takes place. Here's what to do in each situation.

If the passing occurs at a hospital in Lake Elsinore

The hospital's care team will pronounce death and notify their decedent affairs team. From there, you'll need to designate a cremation provider — that's when you call us.

  1. Call us at (951) 592-2656. We'll take basic information and coordinate directly with the hospital.
  2. You do not need to be present at the hospital when we arrive. We handle the transfer with dignity and professionalism.
  3. The hospital will release your loved one to us once paperwork is complete — usually within a few hours.

During business hours, we typically arrive at Inland Valley Medical Center within 45-60 minutes. For residences in Lake Elsinore, expect our arrival within 2-3 hours.

If the passing occurs at a residence in Lake Elsinore (without hospice)

When death occurs at home and hospice is not involved, an authorized responder needs to pronounce death before we can bring your loved one into care. This is required by California law and is not something a funeral home or cremation provider can bypass.

  1. Call 911 first. If death was clearly natural, you can request the non-emergency response. Paramedics or law enforcement will come to pronounce death.
  2. Once they've completed their portion of the paperwork, call us at (951) 592-2656.
  3. We arrive within 2-3 hours in most parts of Lake Elsinore, or sooner if we can.

If the passing occurs at a residence in Lake Elsinore (with hospice care)

When hospice is involved, the process is significantly simpler:

  1. Call your hospice agency first. Their nurse comes to the home, pronounces death, and handles the initial paperwork.
  2. Once hospice has released your loved one, call us at (951) 592-2656.
  3. We arrive to bring your loved one into our care — no 911 call needed.

If the passing is a coroner case

Some deaths — particularly sudden or unexplained ones — are reviewed by the Riverside County Sheriff-Coroner's Office in Perris. This doesn't mean anything is wrong; it's simply required in certain circumstances.

  1. Your loved one is first taken to the Riverside County Coroner (2825 Cottage Street, Perris) for review.
  2. Once the coroner releases your loved one, we coordinate directly with them to pick up.
  3. We update your family throughout the process — you won't be left wondering what's happening.
