CHC Nurses Agency Network – Continuing Healthcare Training, Consultancy & Nurse Community
Specialist CHC Training, Support and a Strong Professional Network for Agency Nurses
CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated Continuing Healthcare (CHC) training and consultancy provider for UK healthcare organisations and agency nurses. We combine expert CHC education, strategic consultancy and a thriving nurse community to improve patient outcomes, strengthen compliance and support nurses in their professional development.
Our experienced CHC nurses and consultants offer tailored guidance on CHC processes, CQC readiness, complex care planning and case management. Alongside this, our network gives agency nurses a safe, confidential space to connect, share experiences and access support from peers who truly understand the demands of nursing.
About CHC Nurses Agency Network
A Supportive Community for CHC Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is designed as a place to relax, connect and grow professionally. We understand that only another nurse genuinely appreciates the pressures, emotional demands and daily challenges of nursing, especially within Continuing Healthcare and complex care settings.
Our private, invite-only social media groups and online spaces allow nurses to ask questions, share professional issues 24-7-365 and access peer support when they need it most. Many of our members form long-lasting friendships, supporting each other throughout their careers.
We currently support a core community of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals across the UK, with new members welcomed into our network on a regular basis.
Regular CHC Events, Workshops and Networking
We run regular CHC-focused events, including online webinars, in-person workshops and informal networking meetups to bring our community together. These events help nurses stay up to date with the latest Continuing Healthcare policies, case law, assessment tools and best practice standards.
Attending our events is an excellent way to grow your professional network, learn from experienced CHC practitioners and share real-world insights with colleagues who understand your working environment.
Specialist Services for Healthcare Organisations and Commissioners
CHC Training for Nurses and Multidisciplinary Teams
Our specialist Continuing Healthcare training programmes equip nurses, agency staff and MDT members with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate CHC confidently and compliantly. Training can be delivered in-house, online or as part of our open courses.
Core topics include CHC eligibility criteria, Decision Support Tool (DST) completion, checklist assessments, care planning, funding processes and understanding current NHS England CHC frameworks. Training is practical, case-based and aligned with current UK guidance and regulatory expectations.
Pre-CQC and Quality Compliance Support
Preparing for Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections and internal quality audits can be challenging for providers delivering CHC-funded packages and complex care. CHC Nurses Agency Network offers pre-CQC assessment and consultancy to help you identify gaps and strengthen compliance.
We review policies, documentation, clinical governance, care plans and CHC processes to highlight risks and improvement opportunities. Our consultants work alongside your teams to implement practical, sustainable changes that support safe, person-centred care and stronger inspection outcomes.
Care Planning for Complex Needs and Learning Disabilities
Our specialist nurses support care providers in developing robust, person-centred care plans for individuals with complex health needs, including those with learning disabilities who are eligible for Continuing Healthcare or joint funding.
We collaborate closely with families, carers, MDT members and providers to create evidence-based care plans that promote independence, dignity, communication and quality of life. Plans are clearly structured, risk-aware and aligned with CHC and safeguarding requirements.
Expert Case Management and CHC Consultancy
CHC Nurses Agency Network provides expert case management and consultancy for commissioners, providers and families involved in CHC-funded packages of care. Our case managers coordinate person-centred support that addresses both clinical and psychosocial needs.
We focus on optimising resources across multiple providers, ensuring legal and regulatory compliance, and maintaining continuity of care. Our goal is to improve outcomes, reduce avoidable admissions and support individuals to live as safely and independently as possible.
How We Support Agency Nurses’ Careers
Professional Development and Knowledge Sharing
Membership of the CHC Nurses Agency Network gives agency nurses direct access to shared expertise from across the UK. Within our confidential groups, nurses openly discuss cases (anonymised), clinical questions, documentation challenges and CHC interpretation.
We signpost members to relevant policies, tools, templates and training to strengthen their confidence in CHC practice. This peer-led learning environment supports continuous professional development (CPD) and enhances employability in specialist CHC roles.
Peer Support, Wellbeing and Work-Life Balance
Working as an agency nurse in Continuing Healthcare can sometimes feel isolating. Our network offers a supportive community where nurses can talk honestly about workload, stress and professional boundaries with people who truly understand.
Through regular check-ins, group discussions and informal meetups, we encourage healthy working practices, resilience and wellbeing – helping nurses sustain long, rewarding careers in CHC and complex care.
