Mortuary operations

Manage receipt, storage, preparation, clearance, and release

Create mortuary cases from death disposition, generate body tags, assign storage bays, record operational notes, clear release, and free the bay.

The operational problem

Mortuary custody needs an explicit operational trail

The case, patient, body tag, storage location, notes, clearance, release details, and responsible actors must remain connected. CliviQue supports that operational record while not presenting itself as a forensic case-management system.

What CliviQue currently supports

Case creation and body tag

Open the mortuary case from death disposition and require or generate the body tag.

Receipt and storage

Receive the body and assign an available storage bay.

Operational notes

Record preparation, postmortem, and release-clearance notes.

Release and bay availability

Document release details and return the storage bay to available status.

How the workflow progresses

A connected operational sequence

1

Create and receive

Open the linked case, confirm identification, and record receipt.

2

Assign and document

Select the storage bay and capture the required operational notes.

3

Clear and release

Complete release clearance, record the release, and free the bay.

Current scope and limitations

What this feature does not claim

  • The mortuary module is operational, not a full forensic system.
  • Postmortem information is represented as notes rather than a comprehensive forensic workflow.
  • Hospitals remain responsible for legal, identification, custody, and release procedures.
