Trauma cleanup generally refers to property cleanup after an event involving blood or bodily fluids once emergency and investigative activity is complete.
When professional cleanup may be appropriate
The work can involve cleaning, removing affected material and reducing cross-contamination during the process.
Before cleanup begins
Keep people and pets away from the affected area when practical.
Avoid unnecessary contact with blood, bodily fluids or contaminated material.
If emergency responders or law enforcement still control the scene, wait until it is released.
Do not assume that a surface is fully addressed simply because visible material has been removed.
