Unattended death cleanup
Cleaning and restoring a home after a person died alone and was not found for some time. What must be removed is decided by how far fluids reached into porous materials, not by the size of the room.
What kind of thing this is
Unattended death cleanup is a category of work in this field. This definition comes from a standards body or an industry institution rather than from government. That makes it authoritative about practice and silent about legal obligation — a distinction worth keeping when a company cites it.

Why the wording matters
This site defines terms in under forty words wherever it can, and attaches the practical consequence rather than leaving it implied. A definition that tells you what something is, without telling you what follows from it, is trivia at a moment when nobody has room for trivia.
