Serves Paramount families needing specialized care. We coordinate transfers from LB Memorial regularly.
We regularly work with care facilities, skilled nursing homes, and assisted living communities across Paramount. When a passing occurs, we coordinate directly with facility staff to expedite the process for your family.
The process depends on where the passing takes place. Here's what to do in each situation.
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.
During business hours, we typically arrive at Kaiser Bellflower within 20-30 minutes. For residences in Paramount, expect our arrival within 1-2 hours.
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.
When hospice is involved, the process is significantly simpler:
Some deaths — particularly sudden or unexplained ones — are reviewed by the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner in Boyle Heights. This doesn't mean anything is wrong; it's simply required in certain circumstances.
Our service area covers all of Paramount. If you're calling from any of the neighborhoods below — or anywhere else in Paramount — we come to you.
