The Clearinghouse Mission Statement

The Institute seeks to highlight and zero-in on substandard death investigation practices across the U.S. relating to prison deaths, hospital deaths, nursing home deaths, deaths due to accident, homicide, suicide and those deemed " natural."

If you are having difficulty with the Medical Examiner/Coroner system in your state, if you have a loved one who has died within a prison system, in a hospital setting, in a nursing home, or due to an accident, a personal injury, homicide or suicide, if you do not know what your rights are in so far as stating to a medical examiner what you desire or are not being provided, contact us. By phone, fax or email.

Requesting information and specific protocols of the medical examiner/coroner at the outset before problems arise is key. The knowledge needed in order to request that information---priceless.
