Understanding Blood Cleanup and Bodily Fluid Remediation

At PuroClean of Matawan, we understand that dealing with an area contaminated with blood, other bodily fluids, and human or animal remains can be a distressing experience. The tragic circumstances that lead to the need for this type of biohazard cleanup service make it necessary to employ professional services.

Human blood is a biohazard and can expose individuals to various pathogens such as HIV, MRSA, Hepatitis B and C, making precise cleanup crucial.

Our team follows strict bloodborne pathogen cleanup guidelines from organizations like OSHA and EPA, using specialized and personal protective equipment (PPE) like eye protection and disposable gloves. This makes sure you avoid liability from improper cleanup procedures involving hazardous materials such as body fluids, blood, and other potentially infectious pathogens.

Our blood and bodily fluid cleaning and restoration services are thorough and reliable. We include deep cleaning, the application of hospital-grade disinfectants, and deodorizing all areas where the trauma occurred.

BOPIM – The Standard for Bodily Fluids and Infectious Material

OSHA Guidelines for Blood Cleanup

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) created the Blood and Other Potentially Infectious Materials (BOPIM) standard in 1991 to protect workers from exposure to infectious materials. These standards provide guidelines for safely handling and cleaning blood spills, bodily fluids, and other potentially infectious materials. 

The BOPIM standards, which aim to prevent exposure to bloodborne pathogens such as Hepatitis B, HIV, and COVID-19, are essential in our industry. They mandate specific protocols for all biohazard cleaning professionals. At PuroClean, we strictly adhere to these procedures. By doing so, we can effectively prevent contamination and safeguard ourselves and others from health risks associated with biohazards.

When technicians handle hazardous materials, they face significant risks. Proper rules and specialized training protect the workers and future occupants of the cleaned space. Following these guidelines ensures the safety of all exposed to biohazards during and after blood cleanup.

Our blood cleanup team adheres to the BOPIM standard. Key requisites include:

  • Complete a Health and Safety Assessment (OSHA requirement)
  • Using work practice, administrative, and engineering controls to protect our workers and residents.
  • Using appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
