CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist CHC Training, Support & Community for Agency Nurses
A Dedicated UK Network for CHC Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a specialist UK community for agency nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), community nursing, and complex care.
We combine expert CHC training, healthcare consultancy, and a supportive professional network so agency nurses can grow their skills, stay compliant, and feel supported in their demanding roles.
What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
Our network is a safe, relaxed and professional space where CHC agency nurses can connect, learn and share real-world experience.
As every nurse knows, only another nurse truly understands the pressures, emotional demands and complexity of nursing work — especially within Continuing Healthcare and community settings.
Through our private social media groups, online events and in‑person meet‑ups, we bring together a core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who support each other 24/7/365.
Many of our members form strong professional relationships that grow into lasting friendships, providing both peer support and career development opportunities.
Professional CHC Training for Agency Nurses
Specialist CHC Courses to Build Confidence and Competence
We offer practical, evidence‑based training designed specifically for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare, community nursing and complex care packages.
Our courses cover key topics such as CHC eligibility, Decision Support Tool (DST), Funded Nursing Care (FNC), care planning, risk assessment and person‑centred documentation, helping agency nurses feel confident and prepared in every placement.
All training is aligned with current UK legislation, NHS CHC framework guidance and professional standards, supporting safe, effective and compliant practice.
Flexible, Tailored Learning for Individual Nurses and Teams
Whether you are an individual agency nurse wanting to specialise in CHC, or an agency / provider seeking to upskill your workforce, we tailor our training delivery to your needs.
We provide online workshops, live webinars, small‑group masterclasses and bespoke sessions for organisations, all designed to be practical, interactive and directly relevant to day‑to‑day practice.
Expert Consultancy for CHC, Transitions & Complex Care
Transitions in Healthcare
Supporting Safe and Seamless Patient Transfers
Healthcare transitions between hospital, care homes and community settings are high‑risk points for patients receiving CHC or complex care.
We provide expert guidance and consultancy support to help nurses and providers plan and manage safe, person‑centred transitions that protect continuity of care, dignity and safety.
Pre‑CQC Readiness Support for Agencies and Providers
Preparing for CQC Inspection in CHC and Community Settings
We work with nurse agencies, domiciliary care providers and complex care services to review their systems and clinical practice before CQC inspections.
Our support includes reviewing care plans, risk assessments, CHC documentation, policies and governance, then providing clear, actionable recommendations to strengthen compliance and quality of care.
Person‑Centred Support for Learning Disabilities & Autism
Developing Meaningful, Individualised Care Plans
Many CHC and community packages involve individuals with learning disabilities and/or autism, often with complex health and behavioural needs.
We support nurses and providers to create person‑centred care and support plans that promote independence, communication, choice and safety, informed by evidence‑based practice and current UK guidance.
CHC and Community DoLS Application & Training
Building Legal Awareness and Practical Skills
We provide specialist training on NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) processes and community Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS), giving agency nurses the knowledge to work confidently within legal and ethical frameworks.
Our sessions cover eligibility criteria, completion of CHC documentation, best‑interests decision‑making, MCA, and how to contribute effectively to multi‑disciplinary team (MDT) discussions.
Person‑Centred Case Management Support
Coordinating Complex CHC Packages
For providers and families involved in complex CHC packages, we offer case management‑style support to help coordinate care across multiple professionals and settings.
Our focus is always on person‑centred outcomes, quality of life, and ensuring that care is safe, proportionate and compliant with CHC guidance and safeguarding requirements.
A Supportive Professional Community for CHC Agency Nurses
Private Social Media Groups & Peer Support
The CHC Nurses Agency Network runs confidential, invite‑only social media groups for agency nurses working in CHC and community services.
Members use these groups to ask clinical questions, share professional issues, discuss CHC challenges, and access peer support 24‑7‑365 from colleagues who truly understand their work.
Regular Events, Webinars & Networking Opportunities
We host regular online and in‑person events focused on CHC practice, care standards, CQC expectations, and best practice in community nursing.
These events give agency nurses the opportunity to learn from CHC experts, keep up to date with policy changes, and build long‑term professional connections across the UK.
