Trauma Scene Cleaning and the dangers involved

Trauma happens to everyone at one point during their life, but what happens when the traumatic scenes leave behind biohazard waste that must be cleaned and removed? Bio Clean Services provides certified biohazard cleanup for Trauma, Death, Suicide, Crime and many other scenes that contain potentially dangerous biohazards.

When a trauma occurs, especially with the presence of blood, emergency professionals and police departments do not clean up the aftermath of the trauma scene. That responsibility is left to a family member of the victim or the property owner. These types of dangerous scene cleanups should never be performed by an untrained individual. As a certified biohazard cleaning and removal company, we provide these services to assist the victim’s family members or the property owners to ensure proper cleanup and remediation of the scene where the trauma occurred.

Every State has different protocol for the cleanup and removal/disposal of biohazard waste and materials. Our company is certified to follow these protocols and all technicians are trained to protect our clients and return the scene to a safe condition as soon as possible. If an individual were to attempt to clean and dispose of biohazards they are putting themselves and others at risk for potential infections or health compromises. They may also be subject to fines imposed by their municipality for the improper cleanup and disposal.

Often times the health conditions of these victims are not known or the scenes are too emotionally overwhelming for the victim’s family members or property owners to deal with. Bio Clean Services provides these services on a daily basis. Over the course of the past decade, there are very few types of biohazard scenes that we haven’t cleaned up.

If you, or someone you know has experienced a trauma, discovered an unattended death or crime scene that contains biohazards and requires cleanup it’s imperative that you contact our office immediately for assistance.  We are experts in insurance billing and utilization of other community resources that can assist with payment for our services. Don’t put yourself or others at risk due to your inability to pay. Your protection is our main concern.

Myths and Facts About Suicide or Depression

Depression in Americans today is more common than Cancer, AIDS or Diabetes combined. It’s estimated that nearly 400,000+ people attempt suicide in the United States each year.

Suicides peak during the major holidays

There are certain times of the year that suicides spike and are more common, but during the holidays isn’t that time. Statistics show that suicides in December are usually at their lowest and seem to peak in the spring months.  Bio Clean Services provides suicide cleanup services in the Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia.

Suicide rates are higher with altitude

It’s been discovered that the greater the altitude of someone’s home, the higher the suicide rate seems to be. This is particularly true in cities with high rise living. These suicide rates ranked higher than those of increased gun ownership or of a lower population density.

Teens are the highest risk of suicide

This is actually just the opposite. Elderly people are more likely to commit suicide than any other age group.  Teenagers are still a high risk group, but ordinarily Caucasian men over the age of 85 have the highest percentage. Our professionals who provide suicide cleanup services agree with these statistics. The majority of suicide clean up jobs we perform are for elderly victims, most of whom have major health issues and are alone.

Depression is always the cause of suicide

It is true that two out of every three people that commit suicide are depressed but other factors such as alcoholism, failed marriages, financial devastation also attribute to suicide.
