Referral Information for Professionals

Verified Horizon information and a clear handoff process for professionals supporting a family after a death.

Verified business details

Give the family accurate information without implying an affiliation.

Horizon Funeral Home is an independent Brooklyn funeral home. A hospital, hospice, nursing home, social worker, clergy member, cemetery, or community organization may share Horizon's public contact information when a family asks for options, but the family or other authorized arranger chooses the provider.

When the family selects Horizon, call our team so we can confirm the authorized arranger, release location, responsible facility or agency contact, and the next lawful transfer or arrangement step.

Follow the organization's privacy, release, and identity-verification procedures.

Professional referral questions

Protect family choice and keep the handoff clear.

No affiliation or endorsement should be inferred. Horizon is an independent funeral home. Families remain free to choose their funeral provider, and a professional may share Horizon's information as one available option when appropriate.
