Cold comfort: health visitors, nurses and midwives are being trained to identify older people whose health problems are compounded by living in cold or damp homes. Lynn Moores, a community nurse for older people at Dudley Primary Care Trust, helps run the multi-agency Health Through Warmth scheme, which involves the local council and energy company npower. The scheme has won the National Housing Federation's 2008 Neighbourhood Award for Partnership. Ms Moores said: 'By helping to identify people at risk, either in hospital or in the community, nurses are making a difference to their patients' health.'
