Transport scheduling involves coordinating pickups from hospitals, nursing facilities, and private residences with deliveries to the mortuary and cemetery, as well as the crematory. Each movement requires a vehicle, a driver, and a time window. The number of available vehicles is typically small relative to the movements needed on a busy day. CemSites mortuary scheduling software manages vehicle availability inside the same calendar that handles facility and staff scheduling.
When a new case requires a pickup, CemSites shows which vehicles are available, which are in transit, and when each will return. The dispatch can be scheduled from the case intake screen without switching to a separate tool. Completed transports update vehicle status automatically so the availability picture stays current.
