Suicide & Trauma Scene Cleanup

Cleanup after a suicide or other qualifying trauma scene can involve blood, bodily fluids, damaged materials, and difficult personal circumstances. The immediate priority is to respect any active investigation and avoid unnecessary contact with contaminated areas.

Georgia defines certain suicide, homicide, and advanced-decomposition scenes as “trauma scenes” for purposes of its waste-management rules. Companies performing covered work must satisfy applicable state requirements.
