Professional biohazard cleanup and decontamination services delivered with discretion, care, and industry-approved protocols.
Biohazard cleanup means working to clean up areas where a traumatic event has happened and requires professional cleanup. These are incidents where there are chemical spills, blood, or human and animal remains. Cleaning areas during a biohazard cleaning includes the application of EPA approved hospital grade disinfectants and complete deodorization of the affected space.
The state is not responsible for cleaning up a crime scene. Once police investigators gather evidence from the scene, it is the responsibility of the property owner to employ biohazard cleanup services. A professional cleanup company, like us, can arrive onsite only after the police have gathered all evidence pertaining to the crime.
In 1991, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued a standard to protect all workers from possible dangers of blood or other potentially infectious materials (BOPIM). Hepatitis B virus, HIV, the 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), are just a few examples of Infectious pathogens.
Approximately 5.6 million employees are helped by this standard in healthcare positions and related occupations, and includes biohazard cleanup companies as well. The BOPIM standard also covers the biohazard cleaning and removal industry.
Additionally, the BOPIM standard includes several prerequisites, as follows:
Common Biohazard Scenarios
Our technicians face significant dangers each and every time they handle items that are potentially hazardous. For this reason, the practice of proper training and safety precautions are critically important. The training and safety methods are important for both the technicians employed on the project as well as the tenants who will be occupying the space once the biohazard remediation is complete.
To be employed as a biohazard specialist, a certificate is not required. However, biohazard technicians are strongly required to wear proper PPE when working in areas with bloodborne pathogens. The state of Georgia recently passed a law which affects any firm providing cleanup services related to trauma and crime scene cleaning and restoration. Therefore, you should refer to local city, state, and federal regulations that could call for special licensing or have certain laws in place for licensing requirements, background checks, fingerprinting or further factors that may apply to biohazard cleanup companies.
To protect the safety of our workers, PPE is used as the final barrier of defense. PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) protects the body from coming into contact with hazardous items, through the skin, eyes, mouth, nose, or any other body parts. PPE specific items change depending on the job, but needs to always consist of cut resistant and nitrile gloves, full face guard, properly designated waterproof coveralls, and a respirator.
Furthermore, reputable restoration companies offer biohazard remediation courses for workers. That includes learning OSHA’s on-the-job safety procedures when handling biohazardous waste. Doing so reduces the potential of accidents and probable lawsuits.
