Can funeral homes in New Jersey own and operate a crematory?

Yes, they can
No, they cannot
Only bigger funeral homes can
Only during specific months

The correct answer is: No, they cannot

In New Jersey, funeral homes are not permitted to own and operate a crematory. State regulations place strict oversight on crematories, including ownership and operation. This restriction is intended to ensure that the cremation process is conducted under high standards, with appropriate accountability and safety measures. Furthermore, having crematories owned by funeral homes could raise ethical concerns regarding business practices, potentially leading to conflicts of interest. The other options suggest varying degrees of ownership or operational restrictions, which are not applicable as current regulations firmly prohibit funeral homes from owning crematory facilities. Understanding this aspect is crucial for compliance with New Jersey's laws governing the funeral service industry.
