A Guide to Water Cremation for Hospice Teams
Live Virtual Webinar
On-Demand Recording Provided to Your Team Afterward

Duration: Up to 1 hour with Q&A.

As a hospice professional, families look to you for guidance, comfort, and options during life's final transition. Today, more families are seeking sustainable, gentle alternatives to traditional burial and flame cremation.

Join us for this live in-service training introducing your team to Water Cremation (also known as aquamation or alkaline hydrolysis), an environmentally conscious end-of-life choice.

Developed specifically for hospice nurses, social workers, chaplains, and care coordinators, this session equips your team with the knowledge needed to confidently answer patient and family questions about eco-friendly aftercare.

Your team will learn:


  • The Science of Alkaline Hydrolysis: A simple, dignified breakdown of how warm water, natural alkalinity, and gentle circulation accelerate the natural process of decomposition.

  • Environmental Benefits: Why families choose water cremation—including its zero greenhouse gas emissions and significant energy savings compared to flame cremation.

  • The Remembrance Process: What families receive after the process, including standard biodegradable shrouds and the secure return of ashes.

  • Navigating Logistics & Planning: How we securely handle pre-planning through secure databases and coordinate care when a death occurs.

  • Supporting the Conversation: Practical terminology and communication strategies to help your team answer family questions gently, accurately, and without taboo.

  • Live Q&A: A dedicated interactive segment at the end of the session to get your team’s specific questions answered in real-time.
