CRIME SCENE CLEANUP
PROCESS IN FRANKLY, TN
Prior to beginning our work, we make sure that
our team is taking proper precautions and following OSHA guidelines to be safe
during the cleanup. If the crime took place in a residence, we will help the
family find a place to stay if needed, as well as helping retrieve any personal
belongings that might be necessary for that timeframe.
ASSESSMENT
Whether we are contacted by a private party or
the police department directly, we start out by getting information about the
crime/event that occurred. Having contact with the police department prior to
starting our work will allow us to properly assess any hazards or health risks
that we will need to address during our work. Information gathered during the
initial assessment will be used to aid the creation of a plan of action so we
can be certain that we are treating the premises for all biohazards.
REMOVING CONTAMINATION SOURCE
We will first work to remove anything that has
been impacted by blood or bodily fluids. Crimes involving gunfire, drug use, or
a chemical deterrent can dramatically increase the area of impact, resulting in
a much wider area of potential contamination.
DECONTAMINATION & CLEANUP
Once all sources
of contamination have been removed from the crime scene, we begin the process
of decontamination and cleanup, disinfecting any remaining areas using
EPA-approved disinfectant chemicals.
Our work progress is documented via photographs, and any
items that need to be transported to a medical waste disposal facility are
documented as well. This could include flooring, drywall, and personal items,
as this information may be required by the police department, or by homeowner’s
insurance if there is an insurance claim submitted.
3 STEPS TO SAFELY REMOVE
DECOMPOSITION SMELLS
STEP
ONE: ventilate the area
It’s
important to ventilate the area to help remove the odor and keep a flow of
fresh air. Open all windows, doors, and other points of entry. Ceiling fans,
box fans, and portable fans should be utilized inside the space to help remove the decomp smells.
STEP
TWO: wash the environment thoroughly
Whether you
need to clean a hard surface floor, carpet, or furniture, there are a few
universal measures you should follow:
· Always wear protective garments, such
as gloves, a disposable apron, and a face mask or goggles/respirator.
· Always use a registered disinfectant
product with a broad spectrum kill claim.
· Always wipe odorous areas from the
outside toward the center to avoid spreading.
You may use
equal parts white vinegar and water as an additional cleaning step. Wet the
area, let it sit for several minutes, and pat it dry with a lint-free rag.
STEP
THREE: absorb the odors
To help
ensure that the decomposition odors are
permanently removed, set a bowl of vinegar or baking soda near the cleaned
area. This will help absorb any lingering smells. Keep in mind that the bowls should
be placed well out of reach of pets and young children.
