Introducing CHC Nurses Agency Network: A Leading UK Community for CHC Agency Nurses
Who We Are
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional network and consultancy that specialises in supporting Continuing Healthcare (CHC) agency nurses and healthcare providers through tailored training, events and expert guidance.
Our core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals share knowledge, experience and best practice via confidential invite‑only social media groups and regular online and in‑person events.
Our Mission and Vision
Our mission is to empower CHC agency nurses and healthcare teams with high‑quality education, real‑world peer support and practical consultancy so they can deliver consistent, compliant and person‑centred CHC.
We envision a strong, connected community of CHC professionals where every nurse can access the resources, mentorship and training they need to work confidently and sustainably in Continuing Healthcare.
A Supportive Network for CHC Agency Nurses
A Safe Space to Connect and Share
We understand that only another nurse truly understands the realities of agency and CHC work – the long hours, complex cases and emotional load.
The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers a safe, confidential space to share professional issues 24‑7‑365, seek advice from peers and decompress with colleagues who genuinely “get it”.
Private Social Media Groups
Members are invited to join our private, invite‑only social media groups, where CHC nurses regularly discuss assessments, funding decisions, documentation, organisational challenges and everyday clinical practice.
These groups are moderated to maintain professionalism, confidentiality and a positive, solutions‑focused environment.
Building Long‑Term Professional Relationships
Many members within our network become trusted colleagues and friends, continuing to support each other for years as they move between roles, agencies and commissioning bodies.
Our community helps you build a robust professional network that can open doors to new opportunities and offer support throughout your CHC career.
Our Range of CHC Training, Events and Consultancy Services
Specialist Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training for Nurses and Providers
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training
Our specialist CHC training programmes deepen understanding of eligibility assessments, Decision Support Tools (DSTs), care planning, appeals and funding processes.
Delivered by experienced CHC nurses and consultants, these courses equip teams and individual nurses to navigate NHS Continuing Healthcare with confidence, accuracy and compliance.
Training on Transitions in Healthcare
Transitions between acute, community, social care and CHC‑funded settings can be complex for patients, families and providers.
The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers training and guidance on safe discharge planning, step‑up/step‑down care, fast track funding and cross‑sector communication to ensure safe, person‑centred transitions.
Pre‑CQC and Quality Readiness Support
Preparing for a CQC inspection or internal quality review can feel daunting for organisations using agency nurses.
We provide pre‑inspection preparation, reviewing policies, documentation standards, care delivery and CHC processes, and sharing actionable feedback to help services meet or exceed regulatory expectations.
Specialised CHC Consultancy and Clinical Support
Care and Support Planning for Complex Needs and Learning Disabilities
Our network includes CHC nurses with expertise in Learning Disabilities (LD), Autism and complex physical health needs, who can support the creation of robust, person‑centred care and support plans.
We promote independence, dignity and safety, drawing on evidence‑based practice and collaborative working with MDTs, families and commissioners.
Case Management and Complex CHC Pathways
Our experienced case managers and CHC specialists can support organisations with complex CHC cases, appeals, reviews and multi‑agency coordination.
We focus on streamlined care pathways, resource optimisation, regulatory compliance and above all, improved quality of life for the people receiving CHC‑funded care.
Supporting Organisations with CHC and Regulatory Compliance
From policy reviews and staff training to case note audits and pathway mapping, we help providers and commissioners maintain high standards of CHC practice.
Our consultancy supports continuous improvement in clinical quality, decision‑making, documentation and operational efficiency across CHC services.
Community, Events and Professional Development
Regular CHC‑Focused Events
We run regular events, webinars, workshops and meet‑ups to bring our community of CHC agency nurses together.
These events offer opportunities for CPD, case discussions, policy updates and networking with other CHC professionals, commissioners and providers.
Peer‑Led Learning and Mentorship
Within our network, more experienced CHC nurses often mentor newer colleagues, offering guidance on documentation, assessments, professional boundaries and work‑life balance.
This peer‑led learning model helps nurses at all stages of their career grow in confidence and competence.
Wellbeing and Work‑Life Balance Support
We recognise the impact that CHC and agency work can have on mental health and wellbeing.
Through our groups and events, we encourage open discussion of stress, burnout and resilience strategies, signposting members to further support where needed.
