How do dead people exit hospitals?

Question

I’ve never seen a dead person be wheeled out of a hospital in my life. How do they sneak them out without the carnival of spectators?

Answer 1

If no autopsy is done and when someone dies in the hospital, they go to the mortuary and arrangements are made by the survivors with a funeral home who will pick up the deceased and bring it to the funeral home for burial preparations.

Because of the nature of death many services to transport folks in this manner can be basically on call, or next available. By that I mean if you’re working with a funeral home they may send someone out at 3:00 AM to drive hours, pick them up at the hospital, and return with the deceased.
