It is estimated that three to four out of every ten bodies received for embalming are classifiably "obese." Therefore it is prudent for professional embalmers to continue to learn and improve specific techniques to manage the obese case.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to describe major issues connected with embalming the obese case and to apply embalming procedures and techniques devised for care of the obese case in order to: assist in removal and transfer of the obese case, manage the embalming process of the obese case, and improve the post-embalming care of the deceased.
