The Funeral and Mortuary Science family
DORA groups its license types into 40 families. This one holds 825 active licenses across 12 types.
81 of the 825 active licenses in the Funeral and Mortuary Science family carry a disciplinary action in DORA's file — 9.8%.
This site publishes that count and no more: never who, and never a case number. DORA records the type of action and no reason at all, and the two most common entries statewide are a stipulation and a letter of admonition — agreed outcomes. Every license counted here is active. Why that line is drawn there.
