CHC Nurses Agency Network: Community, Training & Support for Healthcare Professionals
Connecting and Empowering CHC Agency Nurses Across the UK
CHC Nurses Agency Network is a specialist community and support hub for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) agency nurses and healthcare professionals working across the UK.
We provide a safe, confidential space to connect, share experiences, access CHC-focused training, and build a rewarding professional career in agency nursing.
Only another nurse truly understands the realities of the job, which is why our network is built by nurses, for nurses – offering peer support, expert guidance and practical resources 24/7.
What Is CHC Nurses Agency Network?
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a private UK-wide community of over 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who collaborate, learn and support each other through invite-only social media groups and regular online and in-person events.
Our aim is to make agency nursing in CHC safer, easier and more sustainable by improving knowledge, confidence and professional connections in a relaxed, supportive environment.
