Nursing Home Placement

How to Nominate Your Funeral Director

Placing Someone in a Nursing Home

All nursing homes will ask if a decision has been made on a funeral director at the initial placement interview. Most people think that a question on a funeral director is a strange one, but if death occurs and you aren’t prepared, you may be inclined to make a rash decision and select the wrong funeral director

When you have found a suitable Nursing Home in Brisbane you will be asked questions regarding end of life care. This may seem a bit daunting, but you must think about who you wish to care for your loved one when the need arises. Tony Hollands Funerals will 

transfer from the facility in the event of this decision not being made until you make a more informed choice. When you select Tony Hollands Funerals to conduct the Funeral there will be NO TRANSFER FEE if the transfer was carried out after hours. If we Transfer and you select another funeral director and the transfer was carried out after hours, then there will be a small transfer fee.


We recommend you do not just use the Funeral Director that your relatives have used in the past but do some research and contact at least 2 others. You may find that the original selection is fine, but you may be very disappointed as well. The decision should not just be about cost, it should be about whom YOU feel comfortable dealing with. When you have previously selected us to assist when the end has come, you can print this form, Tony Hollands Funerals Nursing Home Placement Form PDF and hand it to the facility early, for your peace of mind.


Please use the buttons below to visit the DPS Guide and Aged Care 101 for Nursing Care Centres in Brisbane. This Guide will show location and information on the Brisbane Nursing Home close to you.


Tony Hollands Funerals recommends that you don't just select the director your family has used for years, but instead, take some time and phone two others. This will either confirm your decision or make you choose another.
