If a duplicate license certificate is needed, what should happen to the original certificate?

It may be kept by the licensee
It shall be returned for cancellation
It must be displayed at all times
It should be destroyed

The correct answer is: It shall be returned for cancellation

When a duplicate license certificate is issued, the original certificate must be returned for cancellation. This requirement is in place as a means of ensuring that there is only one valid certificate in circulation at any given time. The cancellation of the original certificate prevents the possibility of confusion or fraudulent use, which could arise if both the original and the duplicate were to be simultaneously valid. Maintaining a clear and accurate record of licensing is critical in the field of mortuary science, where adherence to regulations and legal requirements is essential for practice. By enforcing the return of the original for cancellation, licensing authorities ensure the integrity of the licensing process and uphold the standards of practice in the mortuary industry.
