CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist CHC Training, Support & Community for Agency Nurses
Expert CHC Training, Consultancy & a Supportive Professional Network for Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a specialist hub for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) agency nurses, bringing together expert CHC training, healthcare consultancy, and a vibrant professional support network. We help nurses, case managers and healthcare organisations improve CHC practice, enhance care quality and navigate complex funding and regulatory frameworks with confidence.
By combining practical education, one-to-one guidance and a confidential peer community, the CHC Nurses Agency Network makes professional life easier for busy nurses while raising standards of care for people with complex health needs.
Specialist CHC Training for Nurses and Healthcare Professionals
Comprehensive Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Courses
Our CHC training programmes are designed specifically for agency nurses, CHC case managers and healthcare professionals who need a clear, practical understanding of NHS Continuing Healthcare eligibility, assessment, and funding processes.
Courses cover key topics including CHC eligibility criteria, the Decision Support Tool (DST), CHC vs social care funding, care planning, documentation, and how to evidence complex needs in line with national guidance.
Building Confidence in Complex CHC Processes
Delivered by experienced CHC nurses and consultants, our training sessions simplify complex frameworks so that professionals can work confidently and safely in high-pressure environments.
We focus on real-world scenarios, best practice documentation, and person-centred decision-making so nurses can advocate effectively for patients and families.
Consultancy Support for Healthcare Organisations
Pre-CQC and Quality Assurance Support
The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers consultancy support to care providers, agencies and organisations seeking to strengthen their CHC processes and overall quality assurance ahead of CQC inspections or internal audits.
We review policies, clinical documentation, risk assessments and staff competencies, providing clear, actionable recommendations to improve compliance, governance and patient safety.
Guidance on Transitions, Complex Cases and CHC Pathways
Transitions between hospital, community, and long-term care settings can be challenging for patients and professionals alike, especially where CHC funding is involved.
Our consultants support organisations with safe discharge planning, CHC reviews, complex case discussions, and multi-disciplinary working to maintain continuity of care and minimise delays or disputes.
Person-Centred Support for People with Complex Needs & Learning Disabilities
Care & Support Planning for Learning Disabilities
Many of our network nurses specialise in Learning Disabilities (LD) and complex health needs, supporting the development of person-centred care and support plans that promote independence, dignity and meaningful choice.
We collaborate with families, advocates and multidisciplinary teams to ensure care plans are holistic, strengths-based and aligned with an individual’s goals and legal rights.
Evidence-Based Practice and Outcome-Focused Care
Our approach is grounded in evidence-based practice, national guidance and current case law, helping nurses and organisations improve quality of life, safety and measurable outcomes for people with complex and long-term conditions.
We encourage ongoing reflection, clinical supervision and peer learning across our network to maintain consistently high standards of care.
Case Management & CHC Coordination Services
Expert Support with CHC Care Planning and Coordination
The CHC Nurses Agency Network connects organisations and individuals with experienced CHC case managers who can coordinate complex care packages, manage reviews, and ensure that care plans are clinically appropriate and financially sustainable.
Our case managers work closely with families, ICBs, providers and multi-disciplinary teams to streamline communication and keep care delivery aligned with CHC eligibility decisions.
Improving Outcomes and Reducing Stress for Families
By taking a person-centred, holistic approach, our case management input helps reduce confusion around CHC processes, prevent breakdowns in care, and support families through appeals or reassessments where necessary.
The ultimate aim is to improve patient outcomes, promote independence and reduce unnecessary stress for everyone involved in the CHC pathway.
A Supportive Professional Community for CHC Agency Nurses
A Place to Connect, Share and Relax
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is not just a training and consultancy provider – it is also a relaxed, supportive community where CHC agency nurses can connect with colleagues who truly understand the pressures of the role.
Only another nurse really understands the emotional, physical and professional demands of nursing, and our network provides a safe space for honest discussion, mutual support and professional encouragement.
Private, Confidential Social Media Groups
We maintain several confidential, invite-only social media groups where more than 500 CHC agency nursing professionals share advice, resources and professional issues 24/7/365.
These spaces allow members to ask questions, debrief after difficult shifts, discuss CHC cases in a confidential manner (with respect to patient confidentiality) and access peer support whenever they need it.
Regular Events, Meet-Ups and Professional Networking
To strengthen our sense of community, we run regular online and in-person events, including workshops, webinars, Q&A sessions and informal meet-ups for CHC nurses.
Many members form lasting friendships and professional connections through these events, staying in touch for years and building strong, supportive networks beyond their immediate workplace.

We warmly welcome new CHC agency nurses and healthcare professionals into the CHC Nurses Agency Network, inviting them to join our private groups, training sessions and social events.
Whether you are new to CHC or an experienced practitioner, you will find colleagues who are keen to share knowledge, offer guidance and help you thrive in your role.
