The VAMC Facility Director or designated representative (DR) is responsible for inspecting the unclaimed remains prior to release in accordance with Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive 1601B.04. (See Attachment) The CO will delegate a Contracting Officer Representative (COR) to be responsible for the inspection of the mortuary services and the merchandise furnished for unclaimed remains. Notification to pick-up unclaimed remains. The VAMC COR or designated representative will notify the Contractor of unclaimed remains. The Contractor shall pick up and transport the deceased Veteran s remains within 36 hours once notified by VA that remains are ready to be released. Scope of Work General Tasks by the Contractor Preparation of Remains (Body) Services for Interment. The COR or DR will advise the Contractor of the Veteran s religious or cultural preference, if known, for remains burial. If no prior preference was given by the Veteran, the preference shall be direct burial. Remains shall be prepared, dressed and cosmetically enhanced as prescribed in the specifications. Each remain, viewable or non-viewable, shall be embalmed using a method that provides the optimum result. Pre-embalming services Remains shall be bathed unless when it is impossible due to the condition of the remains. The female/male body hair shall be washed and groomed. For example: Fingernails shall be cleaned and trimmed; the mouth shall be securely closed to form a natural expression and ensure eyelids are prepared to prevent wrinkling and a sunken appearance of the eyes. The use of cosmetics shall be applied to only produce natural color and texture. Any lacerations, abrasions, incisions, excisions and burn wounds shall be sutured and/or sealed to prevent leakage. Swollen or distorted features shall be reduced to the normal contours enjoyed during life. Postmortem stains shall be chemically bleached by applying packs and/or needle injection. On viewable areas, further treatment shall consist of the use of masking cosmetics to render stains non-detectable. Body orifices shall be treated with a disinfectant, non-astringent chemical (generic categories such as Phenyl phenols and Iodophors) and packed with cotton. Bedsores, ulcerated, burned, and necrotic tissue shall be treated either by hypodermic injection, or pack application of deodorizing or preserving chemical. Maggots and other insect larvae shall be destroyed and their breeding sites in or on the remains will be thoroughly treated with an insecticide chemical. The Contractor shall ensure that the body is effectively disinfected, uniformly preserved and offensive odors eliminated before the remains are casketed. Preparation of Remains (Body is intact) Each remain, viewable and non-viewable, requires variation in the embalming treatment to accomplish the optimum results. A recommended procedure to achieve these goals is the injection of the solution at a moderate rate. The addition of a humectant to the solutions is also helpful in reducing over-dehydration effects. Processing Non-viewable Remains. For all remains, multi-site injection and drainage technique shall be attempted. In the case of autopsied and Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency donation cases, all incisions shall be tightly sutured and treated to prevent leakage. Restorative work such as derma surgery, if required, shall be used to present a normal lifelike appearance. Body areas shall be treated by means of a trocar, using undiluted cavity chemicals having a 30 index (%) or greater. In addition, packs, special gels and or dry sanitizers shall be used to assure preservation, prevent leakage, and eliminate all offensive odors (if required.) Cranial, thoracic, and abdominal cavities, when present, shall be relieved of gasses and distention. The cavities shall then be treated by injecting a minimum of 32 ounces of a concentrated cavity chemical, having a 30-index (%) or greater. When material injection and/or cavity treatment is impossible, all matriculated and disarticulated anatomical portions shall be thoroughly disinfected and preserved via accessory chemical embalming techniques. Non-injectable intact remains and/or disarticulated anatomical portions shall be immersed or hypo-injected with trocar and/or syringe and needle, using full strength cavity chemicals 30-index (%) or greater. Surface application of liquid, gel, or dry sanitizers and preservatives is also required to supplement primary needle and/or hypo injection techniques. In accordance with state law, if the condition of the body does not permit embalming by the introduction of chemical substances, fluids, or gas into the body by vascular or hypodermic injection or by direct application into the organs or cavities, it shall be embalmed by an outward application of such substances. Processing Viewable Remains. A thorough pre-embalming case analysis shall be made in order to determine the best embalming techniques to be used to obtain optimum results. The technique of arterial injection and venous drainage is of utmost importance as well as the need for adding humectant (moisture retention chemicals) to the arterial solution injected. The mineral chemical injection solution shall contain a 2% to 3% concentration, by volume, of aldehyde or aldehyde derivative preservative agent(s), with equal parts of a humectant chemical also being added to the injection solution. The thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities shall be thoroughly aspirated and injected with full-strength cavity chemicals having a 30 index (%) or greater, using a minimum of 16 ounces for each cavity. Needle injections, packs, or other special treatments shall be accomplished, as required, to assure the preservation and disinfection of all body tissues, including those associated with body cavities (organs). A lanolin-based (or comparable) massage cream shall be applied on the face and hands. For autopsied remains. Incisions shall be tightly sutured and treated to prevent leakage. Autopsied Remains. If a partial or complete autopsy is performed, a 6-point injection with multisite drainage shall be accomplished, using arterial chemical solutions as specified for processing viewable remains.
