Lingering smells are treated, the waste is hauled away, and a last walk-through confirms the area is ready.

It depends on the size of the space and the number of surfaces. A single room is a short job. Whole buildings, shared housing or spaces with soft materials to remove take longer, plus the required contact time.
Worker safety falls under federal rules, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. EPA keeps lists of registered disinfectants for specific germs, and the label says which germs it covers and how long it must stay wet.
Washing hands with soap and water is widely taught as the single most effective step. In a contaminated space, cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with protective gear and the right product adds to it.
Some homeowners policies cover cleanup if a covered event makes the property unsafe, but many do not cover routine illness cleaning. Read your policy or ask your agent what applies. Call the insurer before cleanup starts and keep every receipt.
Open windows for ventilation if you can, wear gloves, and clean and disinfect the rooms the sick person used. Pay attention to door handles, switches, bathrooms and bedding. You can get a cleanup team for larger or shared spaces.
