Common Questions About Dead Body Cleanup in Langhorne, PA
Can I clean up after a death myself?
It is not recommended. Fluids can carry germs, and soaked carpet or padding holds odor deep below the surface. Cleanup technicians use protective gear and equipment you probably do not have. Leaving it to a team also spares you from the sight.
Do I need to be at the property during cleanup?
In many cases no. Ask the team how access and keys can be set up. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can ask the team to set aside photos, papers and keepsakes for you.
Who is responsible for cleaning up after a death?
Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books and pays for cleanup. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or an attorney can explain the details.
Who cleans up after a dead body is removed?
A biohazard cleanup team does. After the funeral home or the medical examiner takes the person from the home, the room still holds fluids and odor. Cleanup technicians remove contaminated materials, disinfect and treat the air.
What should I not do after finding a death at home?
Call 911 first and do not touch anything. Do not try to clean fluids yourself, because they can carry germs. Do not vacuum or use household bleach. Wait for the authorities, then ask a cleanup team how to proceed.
What is considered an unattended death?
An unattended death is one where no one was with the person and they were not found for some time. It may be a few days or much longer. The term describes how the death was discovered, not the cause. Cleanup is needed because body fluids and odor may remain.
