Decomposition / Undiscovered Death
Discovering an unattended death can be a deeply distressing experience. No one wants to walk into a room or unused space to discover the body of another person. However, it happens more often than you might realize. Many people die alone, whether from illness or accident. The biggest challenge of an unattended death is dealing with the aftermath.

What is an Unattended Death?
An unattended death occurs when a person dies without others present. Many people die alone in their homes. Others may seek a quiet place when they feel unwell and then pass away. Some experience an accident, others may fail to seek medical care. If no one is aware of their death, then the body may remain for some time until another person comes along.
Discovering an unattended death can happen hours, weeks, or even months after the occurrence, depending on the situation. This is not only tragic-it has also likely rendered the environment unsafe until biohazard cleanup has been completed.
Health Risks Associated with Unattended Deaths
The trouble with unattended deaths is that the body becomes a biohazard that affects the entire room or space where the death occurred. The decomposition process exposes the space to harmful bacteria, gasses, and fluids unsafe for living humans.
Even after the body is removed by the local coroner service, the space itself is still hazardous. The environment can make you extremely sick without proper protection, and will not be safe until thoroughly decontaminated.
The Scope of Unattended Death Cleanup
You may be wondering what is involved in an unattended death cleanup. At Bio-One Marion County, we complete a thorough routine of hazard removal, decontamination, odor removal, restoration, and a final inspection to ensure that the space is entirely restored. Our process provides protection and assurance that the space is once again safe for human use and habitation. Here's how it works step-by-step
- Situation Assessment: Wearing protective gear, our team will assess the environment. Based on each unique situation regarding the space, the mess, and the level of decontamination that will be necessary, we will build a comprehensive plan for cleanup.
- Removal of Hazardous Materials and Fluids: We meticulously remove all hazardous materials, fluids, and ruined items in sealed containers, ensuring that no further contamination can occur.
- Decontamination: Once the hazardous material is gone, we decontaminate the space using the necessary combination of cleaning chemicals to neutralize harmful bacteria, remove stains, and restore the environment to a safe condition.
- Odor Removal: Odor is an important factor in ensuring a space can be used again for daily life. Odor removal and remediation are essential steps in unattended death cleanup, performed near the end of the process.
- Final Inspection: When the space is entirely clean and restored, we perform a final inspection to ensure that every detail is safe and ready for comfortable use again.
