About the CHC Nurses Agency Network
A Professional Community Built by Nurses, for Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated space for nurses working in, or moving into, NHS Continuing Healthcare, community nursing and complex care roles.
We understand the pressure, responsibility and isolation agency nurses can feel – which is why our network is designed to offer both professional development and emotional support.
A Place to Learn, Relax and Grow Your CHC Career
Our network is a safe, friendly environment where CHC nurses can unwind, share experiences and access expert guidance on complex cases, compliance and best practice.
Members gain opportunities to build professional contacts, access specialist CHC training and develop long‑term friendships with colleagues who truly understand the realities of nursing.
Private, Confidential & Active 24/7
We welcome new members into our invite‑only social media groups and events.
Over 500 CHC agency nursing professionals stay connected through our confidential online network, openly sharing professional issues, CHC updates and practical advice around the clock.
CHC Training for Nurses & Healthcare Organisations
Specialist Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training Courses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network delivers specialist CHC training for nurses at all levels, from beginners to experienced practitioners.
Our courses cover CHC eligibility assessments, checklist and DST processes, care planning, case management and funding procedures, aligned with current NHS frameworks and national guidance.
Training is led by experienced CHC nurse specialists so you gain practical, real‑world knowledge that builds confidence in assessments, documentation and multi‑disciplinary team (MDT) working.
Pre‑CQC Training & Compliance Workshops
We offer pre‑CQC training and workshops for nurses, care providers and community teams to prepare for Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections.
Sessions focus on best practice in record‑keeping, risk assessments, governance, policies and person‑centred care, helping teams understand what good looks like from a CQC perspective.
Our trainers translate regulatory language into clear, actionable steps that nurses and managers can implement immediately to strengthen compliance and inspection readiness.
Transition & Support Planning Training
Safe transitions between hospital, community and home‑based care are critical to preventing avoidable harm and readmissions.
We provide training on transition planning, discharge coordination and complex care support plans so nurses can manage risk effectively while maintaining dignity and choice.
We also deliver specialised training on Learning Disabilities (LD) care and support planning, enabling nurses to design personalised, outcome‑focused plans that promote independence, safety and quality of life.
Strategic Healthcare Consultancy Services
Expert CHC & Care Transition Consultancy
Seamless movement between care settings
Our consultancy service supports hospitals, ICBs, community providers and care homes with expert advice on Continuing Healthcare pathways and care transitions.
We help organisations develop robust discharge and transition processes that reduce delays, minimise disruption and ensure continuity of care for people with complex health needs.
By working closely with your teams, we create tailored transition strategies that prioritise safety, communication and patient and family satisfaction.
Pre‑CQC Organisational Reviews & Preparation
Making sure you are inspection‑ready
Our consultants carry out pre‑CQC assessments and mock inspections to identify gaps before an official visit.
We review documentation, governance, training records, care plans and frontline practice, providing you with a clear, prioritised action plan.
This proactive approach helps services demonstrate compliance, improve ratings and develop a sustainable culture of quality and safety.
Consultancy in Learning Disabilities (LD) Care & Support Planning
Person‑centred support for people with learning disabilities
We support organisations to design and implement personalised LD care and support plans that meet both regulatory expectations and individual needs.
Our approach is firmly person‑centred, focusing on communication, choice, risk enablement and positive behavioural support.
This helps teams improve outcomes, safeguard rights and enhance quality of life for people with learning disabilities.
Support with CHC Funding & Community DoLS Applications
Guidance through complex CHC & Community DoLS processes
The CHC Nurses Agency Network provides expert guidance on NHS Continuing Healthcare funding and Community Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) applications.
We help professionals understand eligibility criteria, legal frameworks and documentation requirements so that applications are thorough, accurate and defensible.
Our consultancy support streamlines the process, reducing delays and improving the likelihood of successful funding and authorisations.
CHC Events, Workshops & Networking
Regular CHC‑Focused Events for Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network runs regular online and in‑person events bringing together CHC nurses, case managers and allied professionals from across the UK.
Our workshops and seminars cover current CHC policy, caselaw updates, best practice in assessments, clinical documentation and ethical decision‑making.
These events offer a valuable mix of learning, reflection and peer networking, helping nurses stay up to date and feel less isolated.
A Supportive Community That Lasts Beyond Events
Many nurses who meet through our CHC events, training sessions and online groups go on to build long‑term friendships and professional collaborations.
Our core network of around 500 CHC agency nurses keeps in regular contact, sharing advice, job opportunities, CPD resources and case discussion in a confidential environment.
This ongoing connection gives nurses a trusted space to ask questions, debrief after challenging shifts and celebrate professional achievements.
Case Management & Complex Care Support
Person‑Centred Case Management
Through our specialist consultants and partners, we offer case management support for individuals with complex, long‑term health needs in community settings.
Our approach involves close collaboration with patients, families, MDTs and commissioners to coordinate care packages that are safe, sustainable and truly person‑centred.
We help ensure that care plans address clinical, psychological and social needs, while respecting individual rights and choices.
Resource Optimisation & Compliance in Complex Care
We support providers and commissioners to optimise resources across CHC and community services, ensuring that funding is used efficiently without compromising care quality.
Our consultants focus on robust documentation, legal compliance and defensible decision‑making to reduce the risk of disputes and non‑compliance.
This joined‑up approach improves outcomes, satisfaction and governance for all stakeholders.
