TRAUMA CLEAN-UP SERVICE

 


Without doubt, one of the most challenging aspects of Ideal Response’s workload, is trauma cleaning. Murders, suicides, sudden deaths, undetected deaths are sadly, something that we are regularly asked to help with. Recent programmes like Spotless on Netflix have glamorised the crime scene cleaning industry. Let’s dig a little deeper to take a real-life glimpse into crime scene cleaning. Despite years of experience, nothing can quite prepare our technicians for arrival on site, and the effects that trauma incidents have on their surroundings. The fact remains, most people will never suffer the experience of discovering a traumatic death. For those who do, the stress is immense; it is our job to do everything we can to make the situation easier.

 

WHAT IS INVOLVED IN TRAUMA CLEAN-UP?

 

If a crime scene investigation is necessary, the scene must remain untouched until that is complete. Bodily fluids will spread and become absorbed in fabrics and other absorbent surfaces at the scene. Crucially, the priority is decontamination; bodily fluids carry pathogens and present a high risk of infection. The presence of bodily fluids risks further infestation of opportunistic organisms and microorganisms. Our job as trauma cleaning technicians is multi-faceted, the central role of cleaning and decontamination is carried out using the most effective equipment and techniques available, combined with experience. We aim to reduce the time taken to clean to a minimum. We pride ourselves in a holistic approach to all of our trauma cleaning, it can make a massive difference to those involved. Professionalism in these circumstances needs to include empathy, kindness and understanding.

 

WHAT EXACTLY DOES TRAUMA CLEANING PROFESSIONAL DO

 

Biomart respond after events such as accidents, unattended deaths, violent crimes, and suicides to devise a plan to safely remove bodily fluids, blood, and other potentially infectious materials from the property. These professionals exist because trauma and crime scene cleaning are not something a property owner should attempt on their own. In addition to the health and safety risks involved, the untrained person faces emotional and mental health risks associated with trauma and crime scene clean-up.

 

HOW TRAUMA CLEANERS WORK

 

Before work begins, professional trauma and crime scene cleaners should devise a work plan that specifically addresses the prevention of cross-contamination. They will use coloured disposal bags marked for biohazard waste in order to follow disposal regulations. All porous and semi-porous affected materials in the property should be disposed of before cleaning commences. Non-porous materials can be cleaned with appropriate antimicrobials.

 

More than anything, a true trauma and crime scene cleaning professional utilize compassion and discretion when assisting clients during their time of need. Dealing with a traumatic event is difficult, but when performed properly, a professional cleaning company delivers an exceptional experience that alleviates the customer’s stress while removing all reminders of the traumatic event.
