CHC Nurses Agency Network: Continuing Healthcare Training, Support & Community for Nurses



CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist Support & Training for Continuing Healthcare Nurses

A Professional Network for CHC Agency Nurses Across the UK

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional community and consultancy for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and community settings across the UK. We bring together experienced agency nurses, specialist trainers and healthcare consultants to provide expert CHC training, case management support and peer-to-peer networking.

As agency nurses ourselves, we understand the pressures of CHC work – from complex eligibility assessments and funding disputes to managing workload, documentation and regulatory compliance. Our mission is to support CHC nurses with practical education, resources and a strong community, so you can deliver safer, more effective and person-centred care.

Through our invite-only social media groups, regular online and in-person events and tailored consultancy services, we help nurses and organisations navigate the complexities of Continuing Healthcare with confidence.

Why Join the CHC Nurses Agency Network?

Choosing the right professional network and training provider can transform your nursing practice and career. The CHC Nurses Agency Network combines real-world CHC experience with up-to-date policy knowledge, focusing specifically on the needs of CHC agency nurses and community-based teams.

Our community is built around the principle that only another nurse truly understands the realities of nursing – the long shifts, emotional demands and daily decision-making that impact patients, families and services. Within our private network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals, members openly share professional issues, case queries and best practice 24/7/365 through confidential, invite-only social media groups.

We run regular events and peer-support sessions to bring our community together, both online and in person. Many nurses who join the network build lasting friendships, as well as valuable professional connections, that support them throughout their CHC careers.

Alongside community support, we offer specialist CHC training and consultancy tailored to individual nurses, agencies, care homes and community organisations – helping you strengthen compliance, reduce risk and improve outcomes for people with complex health needs.

Core Services Offered by CHC Nurses Agency Network

1. CHC Training & Professional Development for Nurses

Our Continuing Healthcare training courses are designed specifically for CHC agency nurses, community nurses and nurse assessors. We cover the full CHC pathway, including eligibility assessments, Decision Support Tools (DST), care planning, reviews and funding processes.

Whether you are new to CHC or an experienced practitioner seeking an update on NHS frameworks and policy changes, our training is tailored to your level. We deliver learning through workshops, webinars and online modules, focusing on practical application, documentation and real-life case examples that you can immediately use in practice.

2. Pre-CQC Preparation for Community & CHC Services

We support agencies, care homes and community providers with pre-CQC assessments focused on CHC-related activity, clinical governance and person-centred care. Our experienced nurses review your policies, procedures, care records and CHC documentation to identify gaps against CQC requirements.

With clear, actionable feedback, we help you strengthen compliance, reduce risk and demonstrate safe, effective and well-led services ahead of CQC inspections. This support is particularly valuable for organisations heavily involved in Continuing Healthcare-funded clients.

3. Transitions of Care & Community Discharge Support

Transitions between hospital, home, care homes and community settings can be challenging for CHC-funded individuals and the teams looking after them. We offer expert guidance on safe transfers of care, ensuring robust communication, documentation and risk management at every step.

Our team supports nurses and organisations to develop personalised transition plans that prioritise safety, dignity and continuity of care, helping to reduce avoidable readmissions, safeguarding concerns and disputes.

4. Personalised Care & Support Planning for Learning Disabilities

The CHC Nurses Agency Network has a strong focus on complex care and learning disabilities (LD). We help nurses and providers create person-centred care and support plans for individuals with learning disabilities who may also have CHC eligibility or complex health needs.

Using evidence-based practice and lived clinical experience, we support teams to promote independence, choice, communication and safety, while meeting legal and regulatory responsibilities in line with the Mental Capacity Act and human rights frameworks.

5. CHC, Community DoLS & Legal Framework Training

We provide training on the CHC eligibility process, reviews, appeals and fast-track pathways, alongside essential updates on Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) and Liberty Protection Safeguards (LPS) in community settings.

Our sessions give nurses the confidence to navigate multidisciplinary meetings, complete robust assessments, document clinical rationales and work effectively with local authorities, ICBs and families to secure the right funding and care for individuals.

6. CHC-Focused Events, Webinars & Networking

We run regular events, webinars, study days and informal meet-ups dedicated to Continuing Healthcare best practice, policy updates and case discussion. These events offer valuable opportunities for CHC nurses to learn from experts, ask questions and share experiences with peers from across the UK.

Our events are designed to be relaxed, supportive and highly practical, with plenty of time for networking. Many of our members stay connected long after the sessions end, building a strong, trusted professional network they can call on at any time.

7. Expert Case Management & CHC Support

For organisations and families, we offer expert CHC case management and advisory support. Our team of experienced nurses can assist with complex assessments, appeals, reviews and care planning for individuals with significant and ongoing healthcare needs.

We focus on person-centred, coordinated care, working alongside patients, families, ICBs and care providers to ensure clinical needs are accurately captured, funding is appropriate and care packages are safe, sustainable and in line with national frameworks.

A Supportive Community for CHC Agency Nurses

At the heart of the CHC Nurses Agency Network is our thriving online community. We host several confidential, invite-only social media groups where CHC nurses can:

  • Ask clinical and CHC process questions in a safe, non-judgemental space
  • Share resources, templates, policies and best-practice examples
  • Discuss real-life scenarios and problem-solve with peers
  • Vent, debrief and receive emotional support from other nurses who understand
  • Hear about new training, events, job opportunities and CHC updates

We currently have a core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals, many of whom have built long-term friendships and mentoring relationships through the group. We welcome new members who work in, or are interested in, CHC to join our community and benefit from ongoing professional and personal support.
