Crime Scene Cleanup Process
The presence of biohazardous materials makes the scene of a violent incident a health and safety risk. Therefore, professional cleaning that goes beyond physical cleaning is required to restore the space to a pre-incident state. After the authorities gather evidence and leave the scene, we step in to help with cleanup.
Crime scene cleanup service is a methodological process. To ensure the safety and well-being of our clients, we use a 5-step process to handle the cleanup and disposal of biohazardous waste, as detailed below:
A. Initial assessment and safety evaluation
The first step is to perform a safety evaluation to determine if there are potential hazards. Depending on the type of trauma involved, this could be anything from needles to hazardous chemicals. These have to be safely removed before our clean-up crew gets to work.
B. Use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
Crime scene cleanup involves handling dangerous materials. Before entering the crime scene, our technicians are required to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect themselves from bloodborne pathogens and other hazardous materials that may be present.
C. Containment and control of biohazardous materials
To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, we secure the scene using plastic sheeting or some other recommended barricade. This isolates the incident scene and prevents the spread of biohazardous materials.
D. Thorough cleaning and disinfection
Once the affected area has been secured, our crime scene cleaners start the process of safely and thoroughly removing the biohazardous materials. This involves the use of proven cleaners and disinfectants to remove any visible blood stains and other hazardous materials. We also perform deodorization to remove any lingering odors safely.
E. Proper disposal of biohazardous waste
The last critical step is the proper disposal of biohazardous waste. We use specialized equipment to safely remove, package, and dispose of biohazardous materials such as blood, bodily fluids, and tissues in accordance with local guidelines.
For many people, this is an emotionally taxing time when the focus needs to be elsewhere. You shouldn’t feel responsible to clean up. In some cases, it could even be dangerous if done incorrectly. Let us take care of it so you can focus on what matters.
