CHC Nurses Agency Network: Training, Community & Expert Support for CHC Nurses
Empowering CHC Agency Nurses with Specialist Training, Networking and Consultancy
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated community and consultancy for nurses and healthcare organisations working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and community settings across the UK.
We bring together experienced CHC professionals, agency nurses and nurse leaders to provide specialist training, peer support and expert consultancy in all aspects of Continuing Healthcare and complex care.
From CHC eligibility, DSTs and community DoLS applications to CQC readiness and person-centred care planning, our network gives you the knowledge, confidence and connections you need to deliver safe, compliant and high‑quality patient care.
Whether you are an individual nurse, an agency, or a care provider, the CHC Nurses Agency Network is here to help you grow, connect and excel.
A Supportive Professional Network for CHC Agency Nurses
We know that only another nurse truly understands the reality of nursing – the hard work, the pressure, the responsibility and the emotional load that come with every shift.
That is why we have built a supportive, confidential community where CHC agency nurses can relax, share, learn and grow together.
Our private, invite-only social media groups connect a core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who stay in touch 24/7/365.
Many members form lasting friendships, support each other through challenging cases and use the network as a safe space to discuss professional issues, opportunities and best practice in Continuing Healthcare.
We also run regular online and in-person events to bring our CHC nurse community together for education, networking and peer support.
If you work in, or are looking to move into, CHC nursing, our network is an invaluable resource for your professional development and wellbeing.
Specialist Continuing Healthcare Services for Nurses and Organisations
Transition Support and Complex Discharge in CHC
Transitions between hospital, home, nursing homes and community settings are often high‑risk and complex, especially for people eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare.
The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers guidance, training and peer support to help nurses and providers manage these transitions safely and effectively.
We focus on continuity of care, clear communication and person-centred planning so that CHC-funded individuals experience safe, well‑coordinated moves between settings, while organisations maintain regulatory compliance and high standards of care.
Pre‑CQC Assessments, Quality Assurance and Compliance Support
Preparing for a Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection can feel overwhelming, particularly where CHC and complex care packages are involved.
Our network connects you with experienced nurses and consultants who can support pre‑CQC assessments, documentation reviews and quality improvement planning.
We help you identify gaps in policies, care records and governance, provide practical recommendations and share best practice so your team can demonstrate safe, effective, responsive and well‑led care aligned with current CQC expectations for CHC services.
Person‑Centred Care and Support Planning for Learning Disabilities
Many CHC-funded individuals have learning disabilities (LD), autism or complex behavioural needs.
Through our network, nurses can access training and peer advice on creating personalised care and support plans that respect each person’s rights, dignity and preferences.
We promote evidence‑based, person‑centred approaches that balance clinical needs, communication styles, risk management and positive behaviour support, helping teams deliver safe, meaningful and inclusive care in line with national LD and CHC guidance.
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training, Events and Case Management Support
Specialist CHC and Community DoLS (DOL) Application Process Training
The CHC Nurses Agency Network delivers focused Continuing Healthcare training for nurses, agencies and care providers, covering CHC eligibility, assessments, reviews and funding processes.
Our courses also explore the community Deprivation of Liberty (DoLS/DOL) application process and its interface with CHC.
Delivered by experienced CHC practitioners, our training is practical, up‑to‑date and grounded in real‑world scenarios, helping staff to complete checklists, Decision Support Tools (DSTs), care plans and documentation confidently and in line with current national frameworks.
CHC Events, Webinars and Networking for Nurses
We run regular CHC events, webinars, workshops and networking sessions to keep our community informed about the latest policies, case law, Integrated Care Board (ICB) practices and best practice in Continuing Healthcare.
By attending our events, CHC nurses and agencies gain access to expert speakers, peer discussion, Q&A sessions and real‑life case studies, enabling them to stay current, enhance their practice and build strong professional connections within the CHC sector.
Guidance and Peer Support for CHC Case Management
Our network gives nurses and organisations access to peer-led case management support for CHC packages, from first assessment through to reviews, complex safeguarding concerns and end-of-life planning.
Members share practical advice on multidisciplinary working, care coordination, documentation, advocacy and family communication, helping you to manage complex CHC caseloads with confidence while maintaining legal and regulatory compliance.
