CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist CHC Training, Consultancy & Support for Agency Nurses

Empowering CHC Agency Nurses and Healthcare Providers Across the UK

CHC Nurses Agency Network is a specialist nursing consultancy and professional community dedicated to supporting Continuing Healthcare (CHC) nurses, agency nurses and healthcare organisations across the UK. We focus on delivering expert CHC training, consultancy, case management and community support that improve care quality, promote compliance and make professional life easier for nurses.

Alongside our consultancy and training services in areas such as transitions of care, pre‑CQC assessments, learning disability (LD) support planning and CHC processes, we also provide a unique, supportive network of over 500 CHC agency nursing professionals. Through our confidential, invite‑only social media groups and regular events, nurses can connect, share knowledge and build long‑lasting professional relationships.

What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is more than a consultancy service – it is a trusted professional network and safe space for CHC and agency nurses. Members can relax, seek advice, share experiences and develop their careers with support from colleagues who truly understand the pressures of frontline nursing.

We:

  • Connect CHC and agency nurses in a confidential, peer‑supported online community.
  • Run regular CHC‑focused events, workshops and networking sessions across the UK.
  • Offer specialist CHC training and consultancy for nurses, care providers and commissioners.
  • Support organisations with pre‑CQC preparation, case management and person‑centred care planning.

Many nurses in our network form friendships and professional connections that last for years. We welcome new members to join our private social media groups, take part in our events and access expert guidance whenever they need it.

Our Core Healthcare Consultancy & Training Services

Transitions in Healthcare: Safe, Seamless Patient Movement

Why Effective Transitions of Care Matter

Transitions between hospitals, community settings, nursing homes and home care can be complex and risky, particularly for people eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare. Poorly managed transitions increase the likelihood of hospital readmissions, safeguarding issues and deterioration in health outcomes.

Our Approach to Transition Support

CHC Nurses Agency Network works with providers, commissioners and families to design and implement safe, person‑centred transition plans. Our experienced CHC nurses:

  • Develop individualised discharge and transition plans from hospital to home or care facilities.
  • Support multidisciplinary teams to maintain continuity of care and communication.
  • Identify and mitigate clinical, safeguarding and capacity‑related risks.
  • Ensure transitions are aligned with CHC funding, legal frameworks and best practice guidance.

Pre‑CQC Assessments: Preparing for Inspection with Confidence

Why Pre‑CQC Support Is Essential

With increasing scrutiny on quality and safety, thorough preparation for Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections is critical. Our pre‑CQC consultancy helps providers understand where they stand, close quality gaps and demonstrate robust governance.

How We Help You Get CQC‑Ready

Our specialist CHC and regulatory consultants carry out:

  • Comprehensive reviews of policies, procedures and governance frameworks.
  • Audits of care records, risk assessments and care planning documentation.
  • Support with addressing “musts” and “shoulds” in inspection reports and action plans.
  • Clear, actionable feedback to help you meet and exceed CQC standards in safe, effective, caring, responsive and well‑led domains.

Specialist Support for Learning Disabilities & Complex Community Care

LD Care & Support Plans: Promoting Independence, Dignity and Safety

Person‑Centred Support for People with Learning Disabilities

We work closely with LD nurses, support workers, families and providers to develop person‑centred care and support plans that reflect the individual’s strengths, communication style, preferences and risks.

Evidence‑Based, Legally Robust Care Planning

Our LD and CHC specialists ensure that care plans:

  • Use evidence‑based approaches and the latest national guidance.
  • Support independence, choice and inclusion wherever possible.
  • Address mental capacity, best‑interest decisions and positive risk‑taking.
  • Promote human rights, safeguarding and high‑quality outcomes in community and residential settings.

CHC & Community DoLS Application Process Training

Building Confidence in CHC, Community DoLS and Legal Frameworks

Our Continuing Healthcare and Community Deprivation of Liberty (DoLS) training programmes equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to navigate complex eligibility, funding and legal processes confidently.

Training Designed for All Levels of Experience

Whether you are new to CHC or an experienced practitioner, our courses cover:

  • CHC eligibility criteria, Decision Support Tools and checklists.
  • Care planning, reviews and case management for CHC‑funded individuals.
  • The Community DoLS application process and relevant mental capacity law.

Training can be delivered via online sessions, in‑person workshops or bespoke in‑house programmes to suit your organisation’s needs.
