morgue
The
Morgue and the Coroner/Medical Examiner's office is a completely seperate
facility from the police station. It is several blocks away from both the
station and the hospital. The main entrance is used by everyone except for
"pick ups" and "deliveries." There is a desk where people
check in just inside the front doors. In the "back" is the large
autopsy room with six sutopsy tables/stations. The "cold storage"
room has a wall of drawers to hold the deceased and space for overflow gurneys.
There are private offices and storage and file areas off the main entrance
hallway. There is also a desk in the autopsy room with file cabinets and other
office equipment, including a copier. The "back door", a large
overhead service door is there for the delivery of bodies and pick up of same
by funeral homes.
