Why It Matters in Santa Cruz

Even a small amount of blood can carry pathogens, and trauma scenes in workplaces may also fall under Cal/OSHA's bloodborne pathogens standard. Using proper procedures protects employees, customers and family members.

DIY cleanup can spread pathogens such as hepatitis B and C into other rooms. Providers serving Santa Cruz use respirators, protective suits and hospital-grade disinfectants to protect everyone in the building.
