To our readers: In our commitment to pursue excellence, we have focused this past quarter on honing our skills through a variety of training programs. Having hired the most talented people in our field, we have now been attending training programs to ensure that our skills are the most up-to date as possible. The past few months have given us our own version of Spring Training. Technical skills in methamphetamine laboratory remediation were improved after Steve & I attended a training session sponsored by the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HISTA). I personally attended a training seminar hosted by the Ohio Department of Agriculture pertaining to proper procedures for euthanasia and disposal training in the event Ohio would experience a catastrophic poultry disease or be affected by the Avian Influenza virus through migratory birds. In July, Steve & I will be attending yet another more advanced training seminar on methamphetamine decontamination & remediation. We hope to continue to focus on not only keeping our technical skills current but to also develop and implement training programs within the community to |

Many times, when dealing with victims of trauma, you may be asked questions pertaining to guidance that you do not know the answers without first researching an area. A question was recently posed at the Two Days in May conference about what questions to ask a crime scene cleaning company when determining to whom a victim should be referred. First, it is important to determine if they perform cleaning or restoration. There is a big difference in the two areas. Cleaning is just that—-cleaning. Imagine that body fluids are on a carpet. A “cleaning” will steam clean the area to “remove” it; while leaving debris in the pad & into the flooring. Restoration involves literally removing any contaminated area. Certification is also important as it requires exposure to all OSHA requirements (blood born pathogens, decontamination, hazardous waste removal, etc). |
