CHC Nurses Agency Network: Supporting Agency Nurses & Elevating Continuing Healthcare

Empowering CHC Agency Nurses and Healthcare Organisations Across the UK

In today’s complex NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) environment, agency nurses and healthcare organisations need specialist support, reliable networks, and high-quality guidance to deliver safe, person-centred care. CHC Nurses Agency Network brings together experienced CHC agency nurses, training, and consultancy to help you work confidently, compliantly, and efficiently across all care settings. Discover how our network, education, and advisory services can support your CHC practice and your professional development.

About CHC Nurses Agency Network

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated community built by CHC agency nurses, for CHC agency nurses. We provide a safe, supportive space to connect with colleagues, share experiences, discuss complex cases, and stay updated on NHS Continuing Healthcare guidance and best practice. Our goal is to make agency nursing in CHC less isolating and more rewarding, while improving outcomes for patients and organisations.

Comprehensive CHC-Focused Training for Agency Nurses

Continuous professional development is essential for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare. Our training programmes are specifically designed for CHC agency nurses and healthcare providers who want to deepen their expertise, improve documentation, and enhance decision-making in CHC assessments and reviews.

Specialist NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training

Our CHC training courses help nurses and multidisciplinary professionals navigate the full CHC process with confidence. We cover CHC eligibility criteria, the Decision Support Tool (DST), checklist assessments, appeals, and review processes, with a strong focus on defensible documentation and person-centred evidence. Participants gain practical skills they can immediately apply in clinical and assessment settings.

Community & Care Transition Training

Safe transition between hospital, community, and care home settings is vital for people eligible for, or being assessed for, NHS Continuing Healthcare. Our community and care transition training equips nurses and care teams to coordinate discharges, manage complex packages of care, reduce risk during transitions, and maintain continuity of care in line with CHC guidance and local processes.

Expert Consultancy for CHC Services & Providers

Alongside our network and training, CHC Nurses Agency Network provides specialist consultancy services to healthcare organisations, case management companies, and care providers delivering CHC-funded care.

Pre-CQC & Quality Assurance Support

We support providers and services delivering CHC-funded care to prepare for CQC inspections and internal quality reviews. Our experienced CHC nurses review your policies, care plans, documentation, and governance processes, identifying gaps and recommending practical actions to align with CQC requirements and NHS CHC standards.

Developing Person-Centred CHC Care for Learning Disabilities & Complex Needs

We specialise in person-centred care planning for individuals with Learning Disabilities (LD), autism, and complex health needs who receive or may be eligible for CHC funding. Working collaboratively with families, providers, and multidisciplinary teams, we help design care plans and risk management strategies that promote independence, dignity, choice, and long-term stability in placements.

Case Management, Reviews and Care Coordination Support

Our network of experienced CHC nurses and case managers can support organisations with complex case management, CHC reviews, and care coordination. We assist with multidisciplinary liaison, holistic assessment, evidence gathering, and ongoing monitoring, to ensure that CHC packages remain safe, proportionate, and clinically justified.

Join the CHC Agency Nurses Network Community

Working as an agency nurse in NHS Continuing Healthcare can be demanding and, at times, isolating. The CHC Nurses Agency Network exists to ensure you never have to face those challenges alone. Our community is a place to relax, learn, and connect with colleagues who truly understand the realities of CHC work.

Private Social Media Groups & Peer Support

We welcome new members into our private, invite-only social media groups, where more than 500 CHC agency nursing professionals share professional issues, clinical queries, and practical advice 24/7, 365 days a year. These confidential groups are moderated to maintain professionalism and protect both members and patients.

Professional Networking & Long-Term Connections

Many nurses in our network become trusted professional contacts – and often friends – who stay in touch for years. Whether you need support with a complex CHC case, advice on dealing with agencies, or guidance on documentation, there is always another CHC nurse who has “been there” and can help.

CHC Events, Workshops & Networking Opportunities

Keeping up with changing NHS CHC policy, ICB processes, and legal frameworks is essential for safe and effective practice. We run regular events, workshops, and webinars designed specifically for CHC agency nurses and related professionals.

CHC-Focused Training Events

Our events cover topics such as CHC eligibility, DST completion, dispute resolution, care planning, safeguarding, and CQC expectations in CHC-funded services. Sessions are led by experienced CHC clinicians and consultants with extensive practical knowledge of the system.

Networking & Knowledge Sharing

Each event provides opportunities to network with other CHC professionals, ask case-based questions, and share best practice from different regions and organisations. Attendees leave with practical, up-to-date insights they can immediately use to enhance their CHC practice and documentation.
