*Please note, We can only allow COVID 19 positive clients, who have been embalmed, to be viewed from IFISS. The embalming procedure and sanitisation process reduces the risk greatly.
IFISS is not able to guarantee clients who are embalmed to be COVID free as testing is not available. As with all clients you must treat everyone as though they are infectious and follow universal precautions. We recommend the appropriate PPE to be worn and limit physical contact. Transmission is more likely from person to person than from the deceased.
IFISS premises are treated every 7 days by AERIS TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) approved and on the list of disinfectants for use against SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.
