Jerry Turner - Advanced Bio Treatment

Crime scene clean up is a niche market within the cleaning industry.  It involves cleaning up dangerous material. This could mean the biologically contaminated scene of a violent death (homicide, suicide or accidental) or the chemically contaminated scene of a meth lab.  Advanced Bio Treatment’s specially trained technicians come in and restore the scene by removing any source material, and disinfecting affected areas.

You need special knowledge and the ‘know how’ to safely handle bio hazardous material and to know what to look for at the scene.  For instance, if there’s a one-inch in diameter size bloodstain on the carpet, there’s a good chance that there’s a 2-foot-diameter bloodstain on the floorboards underneath it.  You can’t just clean the carpet and call it a day. The thing about crime scene cleanup is that the scene has to be truly clean, not just apparently clean.   In addition to the infection that can result from blood borne pathogens, any bodily fluids that remain in floors, carpets, baseboards or walls can lead to mold, bacteria and fungus, which can cause sickness months or years later.  In a worst case scenario the owner of the property can be held liable.

Every trauma scene has its own unique degree of complexity. Depending on when a person dies: hours, days, months; where a trauma occurs: either residential or industrial locations (nuclear power plant, fuel refinery); and how a person dies (you get the point) will, ultimately, affect the level of complication for a trauma aftermath cleaning company.  This exposure is very necessary in determining experience.  Experience signifies that a cleaning company understands all issues, liabilities, and obstacles that will be apparent at a jobsite.  It also indicates to the client that it is very knowledgeable in its field and can apply this knowledge to the client’s specific situation.

But what exactly constitutes experience, and how does a trauma aftermath scene cleanup company become an expert in its field?  Here are some points for a consumer to think about when determining a company’s decontamination service.

  • Exposure to a variety of situations.
  • Understanding all complications of the job, including external factors.
  • Retaining knowledge and constantly applying it.

Having the ability to participate in a multitude of cleanup jobs in the aftermath of trauma is the first step in achieving experience.  So, one way for a consumer to consider if a Pennsylvania (PA), New York (NY), New Jersey (NJ) or Maryland (MD) company is an expert, is by verifying its job history; specifically, the total number of jobs and the type of jobs performed.  A decontamination services clean up company should at the very least be exposed to different forms of cleaning blood in the aftermath of trauma.  Bottom line:  ask for a corporate resume that lists the cleaning company’s job experiences.

A corporate resume should showcase this information, illustrating the different types of jobs and complexities it has handled.  The difficulty of the job and where it must be performed (elevator shaft, radioactive control area line, confined space – permit only) highlight a company with extensive experience.  For example, a nuclear power plant which, today, supplies a vast amount of power in Pennsylvania (PA), New York (NY), and New Jersey (NJ) is extremely different than a typical residential clean up.  Common obstacles such as Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) involvement, procedural security clearance and the hazards of sensitive radioactive areas highlight extensive experience unlike most trauma and decontamination scene services.  Even simple tasks like cleaning blood will have a different protocol when external factors are considered.  A company’s resume and referral resources can highlight these experiences and will usually help a person understand a company’s approach to residential and commercial trauma scene clean up.

Additionally, get rid of the notion that time has everything to do with gaining decontamination service experience. Experience can only be established if a company is consistently performing.  Knowledge must be fresh in the minds of crew members so that this know-how can be applied to future worksites.  Remember, a larger crime scene cleanup company has been exposed to a greater diversity of jobs that may specifically relate to your situation.  It is also more likely that a larger crime scene cleanup company is competent enough to perform any job even if it has not performed every type.  By doing hundreds or thousands of jobs, a trauma cleaning company can help you feel secure, as you are dealing with a skilled company that is very well-informed and quite capable of handling your situation.
