Country Hills Crematorium & Funeral Services – Safety Measures in Response to Coronavirus (Covid-19)

At Country Hills Crematorium and Funeral Services, we know that when dealing with a loss of a loved one and making preparations for a service, there are going to be times where there are many emotions. We are committed to providing you with the care and compassion that is needed during these times.

Recent developments related to the public health crisis with Coronavirus (Covid-19) requires that we take the necessary steps as directed by the Chief Medical Officer of Health of Alberta, and monitor and update any changes as may be required. We remain open to the public at this time, and in response to Covid-19 have implemented important restrictions and measures to comply with keeping our families and communities safe.

Some important changes & restrictions include:

• Services and Receptions are now limited to 40 people (including 2 C.H.C Staff)
• Visitors coming to pay their respects may come into the funeral home, pay their respects and leave as long as there are no more than 50 people in the building at one time. Visitations can be scheduled to accommodate this.
• Services will be made available through live streaming, by discretion of the family
• No family bathing rituals until further notice
• No provision of food and beverages for fellowship as part of funeral services
• We are also asking people to consider, wherever possible, having private family funerals.
