CHC Nurses Agency Network: Supportive Community for CHC Agency Nurses
A Dedicated Network for NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a specialist community created by and for CHC agency nurses working across the UK. We provide a safe, supportive space where nurses can connect, share experiences, develop their careers, and access up-to-date knowledge about Continuing Healthcare (CHC).
Our private, invite-only community brings together over 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who understand the pressures, complexity, and responsibility that come with working in NHS Continuing Healthcare and complex care settings.
Relax, Connect & Share With Nurses Who Understand
We know that only another nurse truly understands the emotional and physical demands of nursing, particularly within CHC and complex care. The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers a place to relax, offload, and talk honestly with colleagues who “get it”.
Our members stay connected daily through confidential, invite-only social media groups, where they share professional challenges, celebrate successes, and offer each other advice and reassurance 24-7-365.
A Supportive Peer Network for CHC Agency Nurses
Within our network, many nurses build long-term friendships and professional relationships that extend far beyond individual assignments. This sense of community makes the experience of agency nursing in CHC less isolating and more rewarding.
Whether you are new to CHC or highly experienced, you will find peers to mentor you, answer questions, and share practical tips about assessments, funding panels, discharge planning, and complex case management.
Professional Networking & Career Development in CHC
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is more than a social group; it is a professional network designed to help you develop your nursing career within Continuing Healthcare. We connect nurses with opportunities to expand their skills, build confidence, and stay informed about evolving CHC policies and best practice.
Members regularly share job insights, role expectations, pay information, and workplace experiences, helping each other make informed decisions about agency work in NHS CHC, community, and social care environments.
Regular Events, Meet-Ups & Online Sessions
We run regular events to bring our community of CHC agency nurses together, both online and in person. These events include informal meet-ups, structured discussions and expert-led sessions on CHC processes, clinical documentation, and professional standards.
Events provide opportunities to network, ask questions, and share real-world experiences around areas like MDT meetings, Decision Support Tools (DSTs), appeals, and person-centred CHC planning.
Knowledge Sharing on CHC Processes & Best Practice
Our network actively supports nurses to deepen their understanding of NHS Continuing Healthcare frameworks, eligibility criteria and funding pathways. Within our groups, members freely share practical guidance and insights based on day-to-day experience.
From CHC assessments and reviews to complex discharges, community case management and safeguarding, the CHC Nurses Agency Network is a living knowledge hub where you can ask questions and get answers from colleagues working in the same field.
Peer-Led Learning & Informal Training Support
While we are not a formal training provider, our community functions as an informal learning space where CHC agency nurses support each other with templates, examples, documentation tips and policy updates.
Many members use the network to stay up to date with national CHC guidance, local ICB (Integrated Care Board) practices, and the realities of working across different NHS and social care settings.
Safe, Confidential Social Media Groups for CHC Nurses
At the heart of the CHC Nurses Agency Network are our private, invitation-only social media groups, where around 500 CHC agency nurses interact every day. These groups are moderated to maintain professionalism and protect confidentiality.
Nurses use these groups to discuss professional issues, seek support, share learning resources and debrief after challenging shifts, always within a safe and respectful environment.
24-7-365 Professional Support & Community
Because our members are spread across different shifts, regions and roles, the network remains active 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Whenever you log in, you will find colleagues online, ready to listen and respond.
This constant availability means you are never alone with a professional dilemma – there is always someone in the CHC Nurses Agency Network who has faced a similar situation and can offer practical advice.
