(Arlington Heights, IL) – When Aftermath technicians enter the scene of a death, they are prepared for almost anything. Even if the cause of death is not related to a known illness, they wear protective equipment specially designed to stand up to disease-causing bloodborne pathogens and bacteria. In some situations they aware of specific risks, such as those they encountered in an Arlington Heights apartment. The building owner called in Aftermath following the unattended death of a tenant. Medical officials determined the cause of death to be complications associated with Hepatitis C and Encephalitis.
On the scene, technicians noticed a strong smell associated with decomposition; they also discovered biological fluid in both the bathroom and bedroom. A HEPA air scrubber was set up to treat the odor and any airborne particles. Materials that could not be fully disinfected were removed, including affected carpeting, padding and subflooring. Finally, all surfaces were cleaned and tested for the presence of bacteria. Their hard work helped to ensure the apartment was safe and livable for future occupants.

"The Pasadena Aftermath team did an outstanding job. Not only are they a remarkable team, they are also exceptional individuals. Over the course of the week that they were here, we got to know and trust them. They handled this unthinkable situation with grace, compassion, and the utmost respect for the victims. Words will never be able to truly capture the appreciation we have for them. When our world felt like it was hit with a tsunami, your team threw us a life preserver and told us that we will be okay again.The world needs more “Kevins”, “Jamies”, and “Hassens”, who will help lift the burden off of strangers who are facing their darkest days."

"Sterling and Aurelia did much more than clean the scene. They were patient, kind, and very compassionate. They took good care of the property as if it was there own. Sterling and Aurelia communicated with us every step of the way. Their presence alone did much to contribute to the healing process. On top of all that, they did a fantastic job cleaning the house. To be honest, we hated to see them leave. Our family thank them both to the highest degree!!"
