Health-Based Mold Assessment and Remediation Now Backed by Medical Expertise to Protect Service Members and Their Families<\/div>\n

Abita Springs, LA –<\/strong> The National Organization of Remediators and Microbial Inspectors (NORMI™) has announced the creation of its Medical Advisory Board, a strategic initiative aimed at enhancing protocols used in mold assessment and remediation—especially in housing environments occupied by military personnel and their families.<\/p>\n

The board is led by Dr. Andrew Heyman, MD, an expert in environmental medicine and mold-related illness. This initiative will directly support health-driven indoor air quality (IAQ) strategies across both on-base and privatized off-base housing, where persistent mold and water damage issues have impacted service member readiness, health, and morale.<\/p>\n

Mission-Focused: Protecting the Force and Their Families<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mold-related illnesses and poor indoor air quality have become a growing concern across various Department of Defense (DoD) housing portfolios. The NORMI Medical Advisory Board, which includes nationally recognized medical professionals, is working to align the remediation industry with healthcare-informed practices—ensuring that mold issues are not only removed but remediated to a health-protective standard.<\/p>\n

NORMI’s flagship solution, the Level Four Protocol, is already being taught nationwide. It is now formally endorsed by the board as the leading process for restoring indoor environments—particularly for sensitive individuals suffering from conditions such as asthma, allergies, inflammation, and other mold-related illnesses.<\/p>\n

“Environmental illness among our military families is a national readiness issue,” says Dr. Heyman, Medical Director of Integrative Medicine at The George Washington University.“ We cannot ask service members to deploy while their families are falling ill in their own homes. Patients are being treated for mold-related illnesses while still exposed to the source. The Level Four Protocol finally gives remediation professionals a clear path forward. The NORMI™ Medical Advisory Board has reviewed the NORMI™ level 4 protocol and validates it as implemented by the NORMI™ trademarked NCRSI™ (Certified Remediation for Sensitized Individuals) professional, as medically sound remediation and offers a superior alternative to the industry standard which often fails the needs of sensitized patients.”<\/p>\n
