It happens - Call the experts for help.
1/5/2021 (Permalink)
Accidents happen, but when it occurs at a business, it can be a complicated situation. No matter the biohazard situation, a workplace accident, trauma event or crime scene there are state and federal regulations that must be followed.
Any attempt for the customer to handle the cleanup on their own will not only be emotionally scaring for those involved, but it will also put them at risk for pathogens and contaminants from blood, tissues and/or bodily fluids. Blood cleanup alone could spread infectious diseases such as AIDS, HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and more.
While the majority of biohazard jobs will have significant after effects for those involved, some could be as routine as a sewage backup in a bathroom, an animal dying in the ceiling, or spoiled/rotten food from a failed freezer in a restaurant.
By using specialized equipment, protective suits and following OSHA & EPA guidelines, SERVPRO® can removed the hazardous materials for disposal and isolate, clean, disinfect and decontaminate each surface properly.
