The Pittsburgh Post Gazette recently visited PIMS! πŸ“°πŸ’š

Read about how our students are not just learning embalming; they’re mastering psychology, ethics, and the business of funeral service. As they train to be both compassionate caregivers and skilled professionals, they are reshaping this vital industry.

Whether you’re fascinated by the science or motivated by the opportunity to help families in need, this profession requires a true servant’s heart. It’s not an easy path, but for many, it’s a calling.
