CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist CHC Training, Consultancy & Community Support
Uniting CHC Agency Nurses With Expert Training, Consultancy and a Supportive Professional Community
In the complex world of NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), agency nurses and healthcare organisations need specialist knowledge, practical support and a strong professional network. CHC Nurses Agency Network brings all three together – delivering expert CHC training, consultancy and a thriving community for CHC agency nurses and healthcare providers across the UK.
Our mission is to improve CHC practice, strengthen nursing careers and support high-quality, person-centred care by connecting experienced CHC agency nurses, sharing best practice and providing practical education and consultancy solutions.
Specialist CHC Training for Agency Nurses & Healthcare Teams
Targeted CHC Courses to Build Confidence and Clinical Excellence
We offer specialist Continuing Healthcare training courses designed for agency nurses, CHC case managers and multidisciplinary teams involved in CHC assessments, reviews and care delivery.
Our programmes cover key CHC topics including eligibility criteria, the National Framework, Decision Support Tools (DST), care planning, documentation standards and funding processes, so that professionals can work confidently and compliantly in CHC settings.
All training is delivered by experienced CHC nurses who understand real-world pressures, agency work patterns and the challenges of complex CHC caseloads, ensuring every session is practical, relevant and immediately applicable in clinical practice.
Flexible Online and In‑Person Training Options
Recognising the shift patterns and workload of agency nurses, the CHC Nurses Agency Network offers a flexible blend of online webinars, self-paced e-learning and in-person workshops.
Organisations can commission bespoke CHC training sessions for their agency workforce, while individual nurses can join open courses to upskill, refresh knowledge and gain confidence when working in Continuing Healthcare environments.
Our interactive teaching methods, case studies and scenario-based learning ensure that participants can immediately apply new knowledge to CHC assessments, clinical documentation and care coordination.
Expert CHC Consultancy for Providers, Agencies and Nurses
Pre-CQC and CHC Quality Readiness Reviews
The CHC Nurses Agency Network supports care providers, agencies and organisations with pre-CQC and CHC quality readiness reviews to help improve compliance and clinical standards.
Experienced CHC nurses review policies, procedures, care plans, record-keeping, CHC documentation and workforce skills to identify strengths, gaps and clear areas for improvement.
We then provide actionable recommendations to strengthen CHC practice, enhance evidence for inspections and align services with CQC requirements and the National Framework for NHS Continuing Healthcare.
Support for Complex Transitions & CHC Case Management
Transitions between hospital, community, care homes and home-based CHC packages can be high-risk and stressful for patients, families and professionals.
Our consultancy team offers specialist CHC transition support, helping organisations and nurses to develop safe, person-centred transition plans that promote continuity of care, reduce avoidable readmissions and protect patient safety.
We also provide case management consultancy for particularly complex CHC cases, supporting effective multidisciplinary working, defensible documentation and best-interest decision-making.
A Dedicated Professional Network for CHC Agency Nurses
A Supportive Community That Understands CHC Agency Work
Any nurse will tell you that only another nurse truly understands the demands, responsibility and emotional load of our work – and this is especially true in CHC settings.
The CHC Nurses Agency Network provides a safe space for CHC agency nurses to connect, share experiences and support each other, both professionally and personally.
We host a core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who share issues, advice and opportunities through confidential, invite-only social media groups, open 24-7-365 for peer support.
Private Social Media Groups, Peer Support & Lifelong Connections
New members are warmly welcomed into our private CHC social media groups and community events, where nurses freely discuss practice challenges, clinical queries, agency work, contracts and professional boundaries in a safe and supportive environment.
Many nurses within the network become close colleagues and long-term friends, staying connected as their careers progress across different agencies, CHC teams and care settings.
By joining the CHC Nurses Agency Network, you gain instant access to a knowledgeable peer group that “gets it”, helping you manage stress, avoid isolation and navigate the unique pressures of CHC agency work.
Person-Centred CHC Practice & Support for People with Complex Needs
Best Practice in CHC for Learning Disabilities and Complex Care
We champion person-centred CHC practice, particularly for individuals with Learning Disabilities (LD), autism and complex long-term health needs, where the quality of nursing input can transform outcomes.
Through training, guidance and shared resources, we support nurses and providers to develop personalised care and support plans that promote independence, dignity, safety and quality of life for people eligible for CHC funding.
Our community regularly shares evidence-based approaches, tools and templates to help ensure that CHC-funded packages reflect the individual’s voice, preferences and holistic needs.
Promoting Safe, Coordinated and Compassionate CHC Care
Whether you provide direct clinical care, coordinate CHC packages or manage services, the CHC Nurses Agency Network helps you to strengthen person-centred, coordinated and compassionate care.
By sharing learning from across our national network of agency nurses, we help members avoid common pitfalls, improve care planning and deliver safer, more consistent CHC services for highly complex individuals.
