Some people may believe bloodborne pathogen cleanup is only necessary in medical facilities, but that is not the case. There is also cleaning up when crime and trauma events occur. Wherever human blood is spilled, blood borne pathogens could be present. Even if a site looks clean blood borne pathogens could be present in the tiniest of drops not seen to the eye. That's why you should treat all sites as if they are hazardous to anyones health.

Professionals who clean up bloodborne pathogens follow local, state and federal regulations who dictate proper cleaning and disposal methods of bloodborne pathogens. Professionals should always wear the proper PPE when cleaning up bloodborne pathogens to prevent themselves to be expose.

Exposure to potentially hazardous blood is a very real concern for anyone working for any medical or non medical facility. After all, we don't want the general public or employees to be expose to bloodborne pathogens.
