Scope of Suicide Cleanup Services
Suicide cleanup is a complex, multi-pronged process that's governed by many important regulations. It includes the removal of all biological materials, disinfection, deodorization, and biohazard remediation. We adhere to the recommended protocols of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to prevent cross-contamination, unintentional oversights, and more.
Scenes Covered by Suicide Cleanup Services
Death by suicide creates a traumatic and incredibly messy scene. Gunshot wounds and other forms of self-harm create spray patterns that send biological materials several feet away from victims. Whether performed in bathrooms, bedrooms, living rooms, or other areas, suicide scenes are often rife with hazardous waste. Not only is attempting to clean these things up on your own extremely unsettling, but it's also dangerous. Our Denver suicide cleanup team uses cutting-edge personal protective gear, commercial-strength disinfectants, and the latest and most recommended tools and equipment to get the job done quickly, effectively, and thoroughly.
The Aftermath and Potential Hazards at a Suicide Scene
There's no telling what you might encounter at a suicide scene. In addition to tissues and bodily fluids, sharp objects, hypodermic needles, or chemical hazards may be present. Before starting this work, our team performs a thorough site assessment to identify these and other dangers. Our site assessments inform our work by determining the best cleanup methods for the job and identifying all impacted surfaces, structures, and areas.
