S4 01 | There's a body, what next? - a podcast by ABC Radio

Here's what you need to know immediately after someone has died, because a tsunami of decisions is about to hit. How the heck do you get a death certificate? Will there be an autopsy? Um, literally, who are you supposed to call first?

That's the quandary Emma Gray found herself in, when she woke one day to discover her husband had died and her entire world had changed.

We'll also meet Jodie Leditschke, who talks us through what happens when a deceased person reaches the Victorian Coroner's Office mortuary. NSW Births Deaths and Marriages registrar, Amanda Ianna, has the low-down on how to produce a death certificate. The important thing is, you're not alone.
