CHC Nurses Agency Network – Your Community for CHC Agency Nursing Support
Specialist Support, Training and Community for UK CHC & Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional community for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), agency nursing, and complex care across the UK. We bring CHC nurses together to share knowledge, access expert guidance, and support each other in the realities of frontline practice.
Built by nurses, for nurses, our network is a place to relax, connect and grow your career. From confidential peer support groups and professional networking to CHC-focused training and events, we help you stay up to date, feel less isolated, and deliver safer, more effective care.
What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a private, invitation-only community of around 500 experienced CHC and agency nursing professionals from across the UK. Members support each other 24/7/365 via secure social media groups and regular online and in-person events.
As every nurse knows, only another nurse truly understands the emotional and physical demands of our profession. Our network gives you a trusted space to ask questions, share professional challenges, swap best practice, and access reassurance from colleagues who understand CHC and agency work inside out.
Core Areas of Support
Professional Community & Peer Support
A Safe Space for CHC & Agency Nurses
Our private online groups are open exclusively to verified CHC and agency nurses, creating a confidential and supportive environment to discuss clinical scenarios, workplace issues, and professional dilemmas.
Nurses in our network keep in touch daily, forming long-lasting friendships and mentoring relationships. Whether you need advice on a complex CHC case, support after a difficult shift, or guidance on agency work, our community is here for you.
24/7/365 Confidential Networking
We share professional issues and real-world experiences around the clock through invite-only social media groups. Members benefit from instant access to collective knowledge, from CHC assessments and case management to documentation, multidisciplinary working, and communication with commissioners.
CHC Training, Education & Guidance
Specialist CHC Knowledge for Agency Nurses
We support nurses to deepen their understanding of NHS Continuing Healthcare, including eligibility, assessments, funding processes and legal frameworks. Our educational content and events are tailored to the realities of agency and bank nurses working in CHC and complex care.
Whether you are new to CHC or highly experienced, our network helps you stay current with policy changes, best practice and documentation standards, improving both your confidence and your professional credibility.
Focused Learning for Better Outcomes
Training sessions and resources are designed around practical, real-world scenarios that CHC nurses face every day. Members gain actionable insights that support safer practice, stronger clinical decision-making, and more robust CHC documentation.
Events, Webinars & Meet-Ups
Bringing the CHC Nursing Community Together
The CHC Nurses Agency Network runs regular online and in-person events to connect our community. These include webinars, workshops, Q&A sessions, and informal meet-ups focused on CHC practice, agency work, and professional wellbeing.
Our events are a chance to learn from experts, share experiences and grow your network. Many of our members meet at events and remain friends and colleagues for years, supporting each other through career changes and clinical challenges.
Stay Informed and Connected
By attending our CHC-focused events, nurses stay up to date with current guidance, case law, CCG/ICB processes, and CQC-related expectations relevant to CHC practice. This helps improve care quality and keeps your knowledge aligned with current UK standards.
Support with CHC Processes & Case Management
Practical Help with Complex CHC Cases
Our community offers peer-to-peer guidance on CHC case management, including decision support tools (DSTs), checklists, reviews, appeals, and multi-disciplinary team (MDT) working. Members share tips, templates and practical approaches that have worked in real clinical situations.
This collaborative support helps agency and CHC nurses to streamline care planning, improve documentation, and advocate more effectively for patients and families within the CHC framework.
Person-Centred Care and Complex Needs
Nurses in the network frequently work with individuals with complex health needs, learning disabilities (LD), dementia, and mental health conditions. Together we share insights on person-centred assessment, risk management, safeguarding, and community-based care to promote safety, dignity and independence.
Professional Development & Career Support
Grow Your Career in CHC & Agency Nursing
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is also a place to develop your professional profile. Members share information about CHC-related roles, contract opportunities, agency expectations, and routes into specialist and advanced practice.
Through networking and shared experience, nurses can explore career progression, portfolio building, revalidation support, and ways to position themselves as CHC specialists in the UK healthcare market.
