Who authorizes a cremation in Palm Shores

Florida law does not allow a cremation until a medical examiner has authorized it. For a death in Palm Shores, that is the District 18 Medical Examiner, which covers Brevard County. The district covers Brevard County alone. We request the authorization as soon as the death certificate is filed, and that step, not the cremation itself, usually sets the timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a medical examiner fee for cremation in Palm Shores?

Some Florida medical examiner districts charge a fee to authorize a cremation and others do not. Palm Shores is in District 18. If the district charges one, it is passed through to you at exactly the amount charged, and we confirm it on your written price before you authorize anything.

Where are death certificates issued for a death in Palm Shores?

Certified copies are issued by the Florida Department of Health, through its office in Brevard County. We order them for you when the death certificate is filed, at the state rate with nothing added, so nobody in the family has to visit an office.

How long does a cremation take in Palm Shores?

Most cremations take place within three to seven days of the first call. Florida requires a waiting period, and the District 18 Medical Examiner must authorize the cremation, so the timing depends mostly on how quickly the death certificate is signed and authorized.
