The list of materials and chemicals used to manufacturer methamphetamines are typically all poisonous chemicals that make this one of the most dangerous scenes to clean.  These chemicals can literally invade every type of surface that could linger for as long as a decade if not properly remediated. These surfaces can also remain toxic indefinitely unless properly decontaminated so it’s crucial to employ experts for these dangerous tasks.

Other countries have less stringent regulations, therefore the risk of biohazard exposures are much greater.

Our country has a stringent medical regulations with protocols regarding  disposal of medical waste and related substances.

Prison guard suicides on the rise this year.

This is true in many cases, however suicide victims can be someone with emotional disorders, professionals in high stress industries, someone with financial problems or even children with relation to crimes, drugs, gangs or even bullying.

Recently the awareness of personnel in America’s prison systems has noticed an increase in the amount of staff suicides. Primarily the thought is that there is a direct relation between the dismal environment that workers endure and the feeling of hopelessness that is associated with prisoners, especially ones that have been sentenced to life without parole.  These workers typically work long hours and in most cases are confined to one specific area and never see the outside world once they report for duty.

These workers deal with violent fights, suicides, murders and many other scenarios inside prison facilities so it’s understandable that it can take an emotional toll on workers.  Bio Clean Services provides biohazard cleanup services for police jail cells, prisons and other secure facilities where biohazards such as blood, urine, feces and other bodily fluids are present.  We are skilled in handling and removal of biohazards in a discreet, safe manner and restoring these scenes to a safe sanitized environment.

Due to the types of biohazards created by these drugs and the potential risks for compromising the health and safety of staff and other inmates, prisons have began contracting professional licensed biohazard companies like Bio Clean Services to clean these scenes. We are called to clean and disinfect jails, police holding cells, transport units and other areas associates with police departments and prisons. Some incidents not relating to illegal drugs are blood from fights, vomit and other bodily fluids found in holding cells, police cruisers, transport vehicles and even emergency response units.  These areas must be properly cleaned and completely disinfected to ensure the safety of anyone coming in contact with the areas again.  All materials from the cleaning must be disposed of according to the guidelines of State and Federal regulations. Our company maintains the proper certifications and permits necessary to transport and dispose of these types of waste.

If police departments or prison personnel were given the task to cleanup and disinfect these areas it would require every member to be specifically trained to handle and dispose all forms of biohazards, and maintain licenses and permits. They must also house all of the industrial chemicals and equipment necessary to perform these tasks.  The cost for even one municipality to maintain these types of services is astronomical.  In addition to eliminating themselves from liability of the cleanup, the costs associated with these incidents are the main reasons police and prisons have began contracting professional companies to perform work.
