Built by nurses for nurses, our network offers a safe space to connect, learn and share real-world experience, helping agency nurses navigate complex CHC work, reduce isolation and enhance both patient outcomes and career development.
What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
The CHC Nurses Agency Network brings together over 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who work in areas such as Continuing Healthcare assessments, case management, community care, and complex needs.
Members benefit from confidential invite-only social media groups, online and in-person events, and access to CHC-focused resources, guidance and training tailored specifically to agency nurses and independent practitioners.

Grow Your Professional Network in Continuing Healthcare
Through our regular events, interactive forums and social media groups, you can build strong professional relationships with nurses and healthcare professionals working across CHC, community, and complex care settings.
Many members form long-lasting friendships and trusted professional contacts that continue to support their careers for years.

Specialist CHC Training and Professional Development
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) & Community DOL Application Process Training
The CHC Nurses Agency Network offers focused training and learning sessions on the CHC assessment process, eligibility criteria, funding pathways and community Deprivation of Liberty (DOL) applications.

CHC-Focused Workshops, Webinars and Events
We run regular online and in-person events, including workshops, webinars, Q&A sessions and networking meet-ups dedicated to CHC topics and agency nursing practice.
These events help you stay updated on policy changes, best practice and case law, while giving you space to connect with colleagues and share practical solutions to everyday CHC challenges.
Practical Support for Complex CHC Case Management
Peer-Led Guidance on CHC Case Management

Within the network, you can explore real case examples, documentation tips and multi-agency working strategies to improve care coordination and patient outcomes in complex CHC cases.
Support with Governance, Compliance and Best Practice
We openly discuss CQC expectations, NHS CHC frameworks, safeguarding, risk management and person-centred planning, helping you align your practice with current regulations and professional standards.
