If anyone is in danger, call 911 first. For a suicide crisis, call or text 988.

What unattended death cleanup covers:
A landlord, manager or relative sets up access. The crew confirms what the owner, the estate or the insurer needs to see.
Technicians inspect the room, the flooring and the air, and explain what must be removed and what can be saved.
Cleaned surfaces are disinfected, and bare subfloor is sealed when needed to keep odor from returning.
Equipment is used to treat the air and structure for lingering odor, and the crew checks that the room is ready for the next step.

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.
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.
Workers who handle blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. It calls for protective equipment, safe handling and proper disposal. Ask any team what training it has and how it disposes of waste.
Lease terms and local law decide. A landlord may handle cleanup through the owner's insurance, or the tenant's estate or renters policy may apply. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can explain the details for a specific case.
