Unattended Deaths and Suicide Cleanup

An unexpected loss is not something anyone can prepare for mentally or emotionally, particularly if the deceased was unaccompanied at the time of loss and your family member. With the passing comes difficult realities, including the cleanup of a loved one’s home. Families need a dependable and experienced company like Karma Klean, to help after such a painful event. We quickly and safely clean the trauma scene and disinfect homes to help families move past tragedy and begin the healing process.

To many, biohazard remediation (and its commonly used alternative, crime scene cleanup) sounds like standard cleaning. In reality, the two services couldn’t be more different. Biohazard remediation refers to the removal, cleaning, and disinfection of blood, bodily fluids, and other potentially harmful pathogens in affected areas after a death, accident, or communicable disease outbreak. Because of the high exposure risk to bloodborne pathogens and biohazardous materials/fluids, biohazard remediation is a speciality service that requires proper training, equipment and certification.

What is an unattended death?

When a person is left unattended and passes away for whatever reason, this is known as an unattended death. Due to the non attendance and the decomposition of the human body, blood and body fluids can accumulate, which results in the need for an unattended death cleanup.

In nearly all unattended deaths, exactly what distinguishes this occurrence is the passage of days, which can, in some circumstances, be up to several months between the expiration and the discovery of the decomposing body.

Sadly, many of these incidences occur with the elderly who were living alone and did not have immediate family members or close friends. It is a grim scenario to imagine, but something that happens all too often.

Unattended deaths can occur from practically any type of scenario outside of this example. A body could be discovered that resulted from a crime, which would necessitate a crime scene cleanup, in addition to any circumstances where a rapidly decomposing body is discovered. But discoveries in homes and rental properties form the bulk of this type of clean-up service.

What does an unattended death and Suicide cleaning service do?

This service is nearly identical to crime scene cleanup or trauma scene cleanup. In fact, the actual service can be named based on the nature of the death cleanup in question, including suicide cleanup.

But unlike crime scene cleanup, those who clean up unattended deaths can typically complete the project much more quickly since thorough investigations are not always necessary.

This type of cleaning service comes at a precarious time for many, so professional decorum is displayed alongside intense and powerful cleaning and sanitation protocols.

Body Decomposition Cleaning

An unnoticed death, whether it be by a couple of days, or years is classified as an unattended death. Body decomposition, though natural, is extremely hazardous to anyone in or around the area when and even after it has occurred; which is why cleanup professionals should always handle the location’s cleanup needs. Many times a decomposing body will emit a horrid smell in the air that’s hard not to recognise. The longer the body sits, the more dangerous the areas around it will become, as bodily fluids will leak out. Decomposition attracts pests, due to the release of bacteria that occurs; which will allow the further spread of the toxic bacteria, consequently also increasing the smell.
