CHC Nurses Agency Network: Connecting, Supporting and Empowering Continuing Healthcare Nurses

Introduction to CHC Nurses Agency Network

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional community for agency nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), community care and complex care settings across the UK. Our mission is to connect, support and empower CHC nurses through networking, peer support, expert knowledge-sharing and professional development opportunities.

Built by nurses, for nurses, the CHC Nurses Agency Network provides a safe and supportive space where professionals can share real-world challenges, develop their skills and build lasting relationships with colleagues who truly understand the pressures of agency nursing and CHC casework.

What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?

The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a growing community of around 500 experienced CHC agency nurses who come together online and in person to exchange knowledge, discuss Continuing Healthcare practice and support each other in navigating the realities of modern healthcare delivery.

As any nurse will know, only another nurse truly understands the emotional, physical and professional demands of nursing. Our network offers a place to relax, reflect and connect with peers who share similar roles, responsibilities and values.
