Specialist Support for CHC & Healthcare Organisations
Transitions in Care
Ensuring Safe, Seamless Patient Movement
Our network includes nurses with extensive experience in managing transitions of care between hospitals, community settings, nursing homes and home-based care, particularly for CHC-funded individuals.
We support organisations in developing robust, person-centred transition plans that reduce risk, minimise disruption and improve outcomes for patients, families and multidisciplinary teams.
Pre-CQC Assessment Support
Helping Providers Prepare for CQC Inspections
Through our consultancy and collective expertise, we help providers and agency nurses prepare for CQC inspections by reviewing documentation, care plans, risk assessments, CHC processes and quality assurance systems.
This proactive support enables you to identify strengths, address gaps and demonstrate safe, effective, responsive, caring and well-led services during CQC visits.
Learning Disability (LD) Care & Support Planning
Person-Centred, Holistic CHC Support
Many members of the CHC Nurses Agency Network specialise in learning disability (LD) nursing and CHC-funded packages, creating bespoke care and support plans for individuals with complex needs.
We promote holistic, person-centred approaches that safeguard dignity, encourage independence and ensure that clinical, behavioural and social needs are all addressed effectively.

CHC & Community DoLS Application Process Training
Empowering Nurses with CHC Legal & Procedural Knowledge
Our dedicated training in CHC and Community Deprivation of Liberty (DoLS) / Liberty Protection Safeguards (LPS) helps nurses understand assessment processes, documentation standards and legal responsibilities.
