Flooded Basement...Your Thoughts

I have a SFR with about an 800 sq ft basement. The basement is concrete block and concrete floor. It has a sump pump. My renters called and said they looked down the stairs and saw their Christmas tree floating past! Luckily, the tree was the only thing down there. 2 1/2 feet of water and a few hours of pumping later the water is gone. Someone" had unplugged the sump pump. I think it was down there around a week. Do I need to do anything to prevent mold or just let it dry out? I have not had to deal with an issue like this before.

Thanks in Advance.
