When somebody dies in the home it is always a very emotional time for everyone involved. We work closely with police, fire and crisis response groups to ensure the home and the family can get the help they need immediately in an effort to provide some form of normalcy as soon as possible.
Where we come in is when decontamination, cleaning or odor removal is needed in San Diego County after a death. Not all deaths in the home require professional cleanup, although some companies might tell you otherwise. When figuring out how to clean up after a death, it is important to know if you in fact need professional help. If somebody has simply passed of natural causes and was discovered quickly, you most likely do not need professional cleaning for that death. However, anything involving blood, body fluid or fecal matter after a death, we recommend having a professional biohazard cleanup company in San Diego do the cleanup. Aside from the emotional trauma of the cleanup of a loved one, you will also be able to then avoid the potential infectious disease risk associated with blood, body fluid and feces.
Again, not all deaths require professional cleanup, but we do recommend at the very least giving us a call to determine if professional help is needed and if not what the right steps might be to clean up the room of non-hazardous waste. We are always available if nothing more than just to answer a question or to point somebody in the right direction if cleanup is not needed.
For anything involving the following, professional cleanup is most likely needed:
- Suicide
- Homicide
- Unattended Death (Not discovered for a week or more)
- Death due to an infectious disease
- Death involving feces, urine or body fluid
For any deaths related to these, please give us a call or a local provider to have it cleaned professionally. We are always available for help with cleanup of death, blood, biohazard etc. Bio-One San Diego can be reached all day, every day at 858-939-9985.
