Preparation of bodies at the Riga morgue

Farewell halls in Riga are equipped with all the necessary equipment, including air conditioning and ventilation. The halls provide space for relatives, the coffin is placed on a pedestal, and there is also enough space for flowers and wreaths.

Body Preparation Procedures Before Burial

The whole process begins with a thorough cleaning of the body to remove all traces of death. If an autopsy was performed, the doctors carefully sew up the incisions. If necessary, embalming is performed in accordance with the terms of the contract. After all the procedures, the body is washed again, all visible defects are corrected, the body is dressed and placed in a coffin, and cosmetic procedures are performed on the face.

Special supports and tampons are used to keep the eyes closed and the face looking natural. To prevent jaw deformation, packing is used instead of bandaging.

Disinfectant solutions are used to prevent decomposition, and if necessary, additional measures are taken to correct the appearance and eliminate signs of decomposition.
