Frequently asked questions about after-suicide cleaning
Can relatives remain in the property during the work?
Yes, when the conditions allow it and the scope has been defined. Their presence is included in the organisation so that a place to withdraw, essential routes and moments of privacy remain available. The pace may change when relatives stay inside or return to the property. The work is not arranged in a way that unnecessarily exposes them to it.
How can the organisation limit what relatives see?
A place to withdraw is identified, movements are grouped and equipment is contained before entering or leaving. The organisation considers routes through the property and shared landing. Work remains limited to the authorised area, reducing unnecessary exposure to the cleaning. No description or comment about the events is included in the exchanges.
Can work be paused when a relative returns?
The organisation can be adjusted when a relative’s presence changes the planned conditions. A pause or change in progression may be considered according to the scope and essential uses to preserve. The aim is to limit exposure to the work without changing the authorisations received or entering an area that cannot be handled at that point.
Who authorises cleaning after a suicide?
Cleaning takes place after official examinations have ended and within a scope defined with the authorised person. Relatives may provide practical information or express their needs, but they do not automatically have authority to approve every operation. Each person’s role should be clear before work begins, particularly where areas or belongings remain subject to a decision.
Are the circumstances discussed during the work?
No. The circumstances are not described and the events are not discussed. Communication concerns only the information needed for access, scope, presence and authorised operations. This restraint protects relatives and maintains a professional framework during a difficult situation. The work is organised without asking relatives to explain or revisit what happened.
Does cleaning include official examinations?
No. Official examinations belong to the relevant authorities and must be complete before cleaning begins. Défi Clean works afterwards within the scope returned and according to the instructions provided by the authorised person. The service does not alter official decisions and does not deal with procedures connected with the examinations.
How is equipment handled in a shared building?
Equipment is prepared and contained to limit its exposure inside the property, on the landing and in other shared areas. Movements are grouped as far as possible. The organisation takes account of other residents and relatives returning to the property, without attracting unnecessary attention or making comments about the situation.
