This will depend on whether the decedent was under hospice care. If he was you would call the hospice nurse, who would come in and pronounce the patient. If you find a person dead and he's not under hospice care, then you would call 911. They will send a team of paramedics to come in and pronounce the patient. If the patient died naturally, the officer who responded to the scene will have you called the funeral home and wait with you until it comes over to the house to make the removal.

Answer

If the person dies and a doctor is not present, then the coroners office will respond if you call the police.
