Hamlin Trauma Cleanup: Common Questions Answered
What is the difference between trauma and crime scene cleanup?
Crime scene cleanup follows a crime. Trauma scene cleanup covers injuries, falls, accidents and sudden events, whether or not a crime occurred. The methods overlap, and many crews handle both.
Will the neighbors or coworkers know?
Cleanup can be done discreetly. Ask about unmarked vehicles and quiet work practices when you call. Crews do not discuss the job with others.
Is dried blood still dangerous?
Yes. Dried blood can carry bloodborne pathogens, and wiping or scraping it can release particles. Crews wear protective equipment and disinfect with hospital-grade products.
Will the smell go away?
Yes, once the source is removed. Odor usually comes from materials that absorbed fluids, so crews take those out, then clean and deodorize. Filtered air machines finish the job.
What does trauma cleaning include?
It includes blood and bodily fluid cleanup, removal of soaked carpet and drywall, disinfection, debris and waste handling, odor removal and a final inspection. Crews also sort belongings and document the work.
Who cleans up accident scenes?
Emergency crews treat the person and leave. They do not clean. The property owner, employer or insurer needs to book a trauma cleaning crew to remove blood and body fluids and disinfect the space.
