Death Scene

Death in itself is terrible and sad thing to think about. Think about being at a death scene. These kinds of conditions will surely make anyone worry either with fear or just pure disgust. Talk about an unattended death scene which is ten times severe than a normal death scene.

Unattended Death scene

Unattended death scene is a pool of Biohazard and a viable source of infectious diseases. There is a high chance that an attended dead body is being rotten and is in a decaying process and in such situation the decay process emits a very bad odor which can leave out anyone sick to the stomach. When such a case emerge, the police do the initial site inspection and send the body for post mortem inspection. After that, it is the crime scene cleaner’s job to discard all the other traces left at that death site and return the site to its normal state. Tackling an unattended death scene

Crime scene cleaners have to go through a painful task of going through a death scene which is usually in its rotting stage. Any unprofessional or untrained person can bet his life to potential viral attack if he tries to clean a death scene. Bodily fluid and decaying tissue contain bacteria, germs and other possible viral pathogens. These bacteria and germs can remain active for long periods and can seep into and be absorbed in cloth, carpets, cloth, flooring etc. plus the odor emitted by the decaying matter can cause respiratory problems. Another thing could be that you could end up in legal trouble if cleaned a death scene unwarranted.

Mostly it can consist blood, tissue, bodily fluids, urine, and feces all in a state of decomposition. This can raise an extreme risk for untrained individuals as they can be exposed to infectious diseases. A single drop of decomposing bodily fluid can


consist germs, bacteria, and active disease that will remain viable and dangerous for long periods of time. These dangers can seep into and be absorbed by cloth, carpet, wood, flooring, subflooring, in between walls, and ceilings carrying their pathogens with them. In addition to the risk an untrained person tackles when dealing with an unattended death, OSHA and the EPA have strict regulations on the collection and disposal to these types of hazardous material.
