Dodge Magazine, an Embalming Lab Instructor at Worsham College, and a very popular

technical presenter. Donor Case Embalming With Focus On Long Bone & Skin Donation Cases, Parts 1 & 2:

Jack will discuss techniques utilized by procurement and recovery teams along with methods

to successfully approach challenging or difficult cases. Participants will be able to develop a better

understanding of how these advanced medical and restorative procedures impact donor families all while

developing techniques which will allow them to conquer any prep room challenge. This program should help

embalmers gain the skills needed in order to move forward in the 21st century world of embalming wherein

they will be prepared to present a thoroughly embalmed case, devoid of leakage, odor, premature

decomposition, etc.

This class is aimed to give participants an opportunity to learn one or more useful pointers on making

embalming a bit easier. Pointers that just may save you a lot of time and grief in the prep room along with

helping to achieve excellent embalming and cosmetizing results. Matt will also demonstrate a relatively new

option for some embalmers for effective cosmetic application to achieve the best possible presentation of the

deceased. While many are hesitant to embrace airbrushing, once they do, they are amazed at how easy it is to

go from satisfactory to spectacular!

years. He has been with Gift of Hope Organ & Tissue Donation since 1994 and is their

required of them as embalmers with regards to all types of necessary documentation and paperwork. This

includes authorization/permission to embalm and authorization to perform radical reconstructive procedures.

Embalming reports and the proper completion of what should be mandatory for each case; pictures and how

they’re protected from authorized viewing; Safety Data Sheets and how to use them to your advantage will

also be discussed.

practitioner side. This includes the art of 2 and 3-dimensional illustrations, enhancing the visual skills of

recreating physical features “lost” in traumatic situations and decomposition all while helping to reinforce the

importance of “open casket policies”.

Jaundice - More Than Just Color: At the conclusion of Kar l’s program, par ticipants should be able to

better understand the difficulty that may be encountered in treating jaundice cases along with determining the

best approach for treating the case at hand.

interactive discussion using pictures of very difficult cases that have been embalmed and restored; showing all

the steps taken to reach the final result. Participants should walk away from this program with a better

understanding of the methods utilized to successfully handle what many would refer to as a ‘challenging case’

and be able to embrace new techniques which will help them to successfully treat the issues being

encountered.
