CHC Nurses Agency Network: Empowering CHC Nurses & Healthcare Providers Across the UK

Specialist CHC Training, Consultancy and a Supportive Professional Community

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a UK-wide community and consultancy service dedicated to Continuing Healthcare (CHC) nurses, agency nurses and healthcare providers who work within complex care, community care and learning disability services.

Combining expert CHC training, regulatory consultancy and a supportive peer network of over 500 CHC agency professionals, we help nurses develop their careers, strengthen their clinical practice and support organisations to deliver safe, compliant and person-centred care.

As any nurse knows, only another nurse truly understands the pressures, responsibility and emotional load that come with the job. The CHC Nurses Agency Network provides a space to connect, learn, share experiences and access specialist guidance 24/7/365.

A Professional Network for CHC and Agency Nurses

A Safe, Supportive Community of CHC Agency Nurses

Building Connections That Last

Our network is a private, invitation-only community of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who regularly support each other with clinical questions, work-related challenges and professional development.

Members join our confidential social media groups and stay connected through regular online and in-person events, with many nurses forming friendships that last for years.

24/7 Professional Support and Peer Advice

We openly share professional issues, CHC case discussions and best practice across secure groups, giving you rapid access to peer insight, reassurance and guidance from nurses who truly understand your working environment.

From shifts in community settings to complex CHC assessments, our network enables you to ask questions, share experiences and reduce feelings of isolation that often come with agency work.

Regular Events and Networking Opportunities

Learning, Relaxing and Growing Together

The CHC Nurses Agency Network runs regular events, meet-ups and webinars designed to help agency nurses relax, de-stress and stay up to date with key developments across the CHC and wider healthcare sector.

Our events are tailored to the realities of agency nursing, offering practical advice on managing workload, navigating CHC processes, documenting care and maintaining your own wellbeing.

Specialist CHC Training and Consultancy Services

Expert CHC and Community DoLS Application Training

Enhancing CHC Knowledge and Confidence

We provide specialist training in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), including CHC assessments, eligibility criteria, funding processes and community Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) applications.

Our courses are designed for agency nurses, CHC nurses, case managers and healthcare organisations who need a clear, practical understanding of how to assess needs, evidence eligibility and complete robust documentation.

Interactive, Case-Based CHC Training

Training is delivered using real-life CHC scenarios, care planning examples and interactive workshops, helping participants translate theory into practice confidently and consistently.

Whether you are new to CHC or an experienced nurse wanting to refresh your skills, our programmes are flexible, practical and tailored to your role and setting.

Pre-CQC Support and Compliance Readiness for Providers

Preparing for CQC Inspections in CHC and Community Services

For healthcare organisations working with CHC-funded clients or complex community cases, we offer pre-CQC assessment support to help you evidence safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led services.

Our team reviews care records, risk assessments, CHC documentation and governance systems to identify strengths and areas for improvement before a CQC inspection.

Practical Action Plans and Ongoing Support

We provide clear, actionable recommendations to help you update policies, strengthen clinical practice and improve documentation so that regulators can see the quality of care you deliver.

By working alongside your team, we support you to embed sustainable improvements, minimise risk and approach inspections with confidence.

Person-Centred Care for Learning Disabilities and Complex Needs

Developing Personalised Support Plans

Individualised Care for People with Learning Disabilities

The CHC Nurses Agency Network supports nurses and providers working with people with learning disabilities, autism and complex physical or mental health needs to develop truly person-centred support plans.

We help you design plans that reflect the person’s preferences, communication style, risks, aspirations and daily living needs, promoting independence, dignity and safety at every stage.

Evidence-Based Practice and Positive Outcomes

Our guidance is grounded in evidence-based practice, current guidelines and relevant legislation, supporting you to deliver high-quality, rights-based care.

By focusing on holistic assessments, positive risk-taking and collaborative working with families, we help teams achieve better outcomes and more fulfilling lives for the people they support.

Case Management, CHC Coordination and Continuous Support

Expert Guidance on Coordinating Complex Care

Seamless CHC Pathways and Joined-Up Support

Our network brings together nurses experienced in CHC case management and care coordination, supporting professionals and organisations to create seamless care pathways across multiple providers.

We focus on reducing duplication, preventing gaps in care and ensuring that each person’s CHC package remains responsive, safe and person-centred over time.

Supporting Families and Multidisciplinary Teams

We help nurses and services support families through complex CHC processes, appeals and reviews, ensuring they understand their rights and options.

By sharing tools, templates and best practice within the network, we enable care teams to implement robust, personalised care plans that align with the person’s wishes and clinical needs.
