In most cases, dealing with biohazard materials means dealing with chemical spills, blood, human or animal remains. A traumatic event that ended in injury or death are situations that require biohazard remediation. The actual biohazard cleanup involves cleaning, applying EPA approved hospital grade disinfectants, and deodorizing areas where traumatic events have occurred.
After police and investigators finish gathering all the evidence from a crime scene, they are no longer responsible for any of the actual sanitizing of the scene. When police release the crime scene area, the responsibility falls on the owner of the property to procure biohazard cleaning services. The biohazard cleaning crew can only begin their work after authorities have permanently released the scene.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued a standard in 1991 to help guard all workers from the dangers of blood or other potentially infectious materials (BOPIM). Hepatitis B virus, HIV, the 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), and many others are examples of Infectious pathogens.
The standard helps protect approximately 5.6 million workers in the healthcare industry and related occupations, which also includes biohazard restoration businesses. Biohazard remediation is within the scope of the BOPIM standard.
Additionally, the BOPIM standard includes several prerequisites, as follows:
More Common Biohazard Scenarios
Every occurrence that technicians need to work with or around potentially hazardous materials, it is quite a significant risk. Therefore, adhering to safety procedures and the correct training is necessary. The importance of these guidelines are both for the employees and residents who will later occupy the previously contaminated space. The technicians and residents depend on these safety procedures. The safety of both technicians and tenants from biohazard dangers is highly important during and after the project.
It is not obligatory to obtain a certificate to become a biohazard technician. Although OSHA does require biohazard technicians to properly wear PPE when dealing with bloodborne pathogens. Also, you will want to check your local city, state, and federal regulators for any licensing requirements, laws, background checks, fingerprinting, or any other factors that may be needed to perform remediation services. For example, the state of Georgia passed a law that affects companies providing restoration services linked to trauma and crime scene cleanup.
To help ensure the safety of our technicians, PPE is used as the final barrier of defense. PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) protects the body from coming into contact with hazardous materials, through the skin, eyes, mouth, nose, or any other body parts. PPE requirements change with each project, but should always include cut resistant and nitrile gloves, full face guard, properly designated waterproof coveralls, and a respirator.
Reputable restoration companies provide biohazard restoration training for individuals. Learning OSHA’s on-the-job safety methods for handling biohazard waste is a significant part in the coursework. The technician’s training greatly lessens the risk of potential lawsuits and injuries from accidents.
Our Biohazard Cleanup Process
As with any type of property damage, PuroClean remediation professionals ensure that any actions do not worsen your feeling of loss of the property owners. PuroClean proprietors and employees are exceptionally aware, understanding that the individuals involved can be emotionally fragile. When dealing with this type of cleanup, it is imperative to always show additional care and compassion. PuroClean technicians empathize with all materially focused individuals dealing with these traumatic events.
PuroClean has adopted a cleaning process that we feel is the best way to clean. The PuroClean RapidDefense™ Program consists mainly of the application of EPA approved hospital-grade disinfectants in public areas. The 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), Norovirus, Influenza and other pathogen-based illnesses are the goal of our RapidDefense™ Program, helping to stop the spreading of such illnesses. Environmental Protection Agency-registered, safe solutions are used for this process for up to three months of protection from pathogens.

Cleaning and application of hospital grade cleaners of frequently touched objects and surfaces are the much needed actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory illnesses, like coronavirus. Since any surface can be re-contaminated after cleaning, and since the coronavirus is also spread person-to-person, PuroClean’s cleaning services can’t be guaranteed to prevent the spread of coronavirus. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html) for more information regarding coronavirus, its spread, and prevention.
