South Eastern Sydney Local Health District Bereavement Information 28 Who to notify When a person has died there will be some people and organisations that need to be notified. This will vary depending on the person’s circumstances; however, these are some suggestions that might be relevant. The Australian Death Notification Service can assist with some of these notifications once the death certificate has been issued. The service doesn’t cover all the places you will need to notify but can help with a few. You can access the service here: deathnotification.gov.au You may also wish to consider what to do with the person’s social media accounts. Each platform has a slightly different process after a person has died. Depending on the platform you can choose to memorialise the account, delete the account or leave the account open.
