In most cases, dealing with biohazard materials means dealing with chemical spills, blood, human or animal remains. A traumatic event that caused an injury or death are situations that call for biohazard restoration. The actual biohazard cleanup involves cleaning, applying EPA approved hospital grade disinfectants, and deodorizing areas where traumatic events have occurred.
When police and investigators have gathered all the evidence from a crime scene, they are not responsible for any of the actual cleanup of the scene. Once police release the crime scene area, the responsibility is with the owner of the premises to procure biohazard cleaning services. The biohazard cleaning crew can only begin their work after police have actually released the scene.
In 1991, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) put forth a standard to protect working individuals from the risk of blood or other potentially infectious materials (BOPIM). Infectious pathogens for example are the Hepatitis B virus, HIV, the 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), and numerous others.
Approximately 5.6 million workers are helped by this standard in healthcare positions and related occupations, and includes biohazard remediation companies too. The BOPIM standard also includes the biohazard cleaning and restoration industry.
Also, the BOPIM standard has several requirements, including:
Common Biohazard Scenarios
Each time abatement specialists handle potentially hazardous items, they are doing so at considerable risk. Therefore, following specific proper training and safety procedures are crucial. This is necessary not only for their own individual safety but also for the person or persons who will live or work in the property after the biohazard restoration is complete.
Biohazard specialists are not obligated to obtain a specific certificate to perform their work. They are to follow OSHA requirements, however, to use the proper PPE when working with or close to bloodborne pathogens. We also suggest you find out the local city, state, and federal regulations for exact licensing obligations, laws, background checks, fingerprinting or additional requirements to perform biohazard restoration. For example, the state of Georgia put out a new law that is connected to any company performing restoration services for crime scene and trauma restoration.
PPE ensures the safety of workers and happens to be the last line of protection. This equipment protects the skin, eyes, mouth, nose and other areas from coming into contact to hazardous material. The extent of PPE used on each project may be different on different projects. However, PPE should always include full face protection, cut resistant and nitrile gloves, properly designated waterproof coveralls as well as a respirator.
Reputable and trustworthy remediation companies train their employees to work in the biohazard restoration industry. This training includes teaching OSHA’s directions for handling biohazardous materials. This training protects all parties involved: technicians, bystanders, and future tenants. Furthermore, the risk of accidents and potential lawsuits reduces greatly.
PuroClean Biohazard Cleanup Procedures
As with any type of property damage, PuroClean remediation professionals ensure that their actions do not worsen your feeling of loss of the property owners. PuroClean owners and technicians are exceptionally aware, understanding that those involved may be emotionally fragile. When dealing with this type of cleanup, it is important to always show extra care and compassion. PuroClean technicians sympathize with all materially focused individuals working through these traumatic events.
PuroClean has implemented a cleaning method that we feel is the best way to clean. The PuroClean RapidDefense™ Program consists mainly of the application of EPA certified hospital-grade disinfectants in high traffic areas. The 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), Norovirus, Influenza and many more pathogen-based illnesses are the focus of our RapidDefense™ Program, helping to stop the spread of such contaminants. Environmental Protection Agency-registered, safe products are used for this method for up to 90 days of protection from pathogens. Contact PuroClean to prevent an outbreak and help create a safe and clean environment.

*As not all PuroClean offices offer biohazard cleaning services, please contact the PuroClean home office at 1-800-775-7876 to help you find a PuroClean office that may be able to help you.
Cleaning and application of hospital grade disinfectants of frequently touched objects and surfaces are the recommended actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, like coronavirus. Since any location can be re-contaminated after cleaning, and because the coronavirus is also spread person-to-person, PuroClean’s cleaning services are not guaranteed to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html) for more information about coronavirus, its spread, and prevention.
