What Vernon Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and decontamination?
Cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and other material from a scene. Decontamination makes the cleaned surfaces and the space safe again through cleaning and disinfecting. Most jobs include both, and the crew can explain how it treats each.
What is biohazard decontamination?
Biohazard decontamination is the process of cleaning and disinfecting a space after blood, bodily fluids, sewage or similar material. Crews wear protective gear, remove items that cannot be saved and apply a disinfectant matched to the germs involved. The goal is a space safe to use again.
How do you decontaminate after COVID-19 or other illness?
Crews clean, then disinfect touch points, bedding, floors and shared surfaces with products suited to the germ. They wear PPE and bag soiled items safely. The same process applies to C. diff, norovirus and other infections.
Do OSHA rules apply to biohazard decontamination?
Workers who may contact blood or infectious material are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. Professional crews follow its rules on PPE and handling. Employers have their own duties, and safety staff can explain them.
Do I need to be home during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
Can I decontaminate a space myself?
Light, simple messes may be manageable with gloves and the right product, but blood, sewage and infectious material are not. Mistakes can spread germs, and household cleaners often miss what soaked into porous items. Crews use PPE, containment and tested procedures.
