Crime and Trauma Scene Decontamination
When a tragic death or serious injury has
occurred, a cascade of events and
responses are set into motion. Law
enforcement officials are called in to obtain
important information and to conduct an
investigation of the incident. With all the
different personnel that will arrive, the scene
can quickly become a sea of organized
chaos. Collecting evidence will be one of
the highest priorities of the investigative
team. During this process, the property
and exposed surfaces can become
contaminated with potentially dangerous
biological material. This procedure will
leave an enormous amount of cleaning that
will then need to be done.
When the police or medical examiner move
on to the next phase of investigation, it is not
uncommon for there to be confusion about
who is responsible for the cleaning afterwards.
It is important to clean up the crime scene as
quickly as possible for both psychological
and health reasons. Family members and
co-workers are not mentally equipped to
handle the emotional strain of having to
clean up the residue that a suicide, homicide
or tragic accident can leave behind.
