What the cleanup may include
Depending on the scene, cleanup may involve containment, removal of affected porous materials, cleaning and disinfection of suitable surfaces, waste handling, and odor-source treatment.
Sensitive, practical communication
You can describe the condition of the property without reliving personal details. The useful information is where the incident occurred, what areas appear affected, and whether law enforcement has released the property.
Immediate safety comes first
If there is an active emergency or someone may be at risk of self-harm, call 911 or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Cleanup should only be considered after the immediate emergency and investigation are over.
