Property owners are responsible for cleaning up a trauma scene on their property.
Private Property
If the trauma scene is on private property, such as a residential or commercial building, the owner or landlord must arrange for the trauma scene to be cleaned up. You can get written guidelines for safely cleaning up a property which has been contaminated with human blood and other bodily fluids.
Learn about the guidelines for trauma scene cleanup.
Public Property
If the trauma scene is on public or government property, contact the agency responsible for that property to request a cleanup.
