CHC Nurses Agency Network: Specialist CHC Support, Training & Community for Agency Nurses
A Dedicated Community for CHC Agency Nurses Across the UK
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a supportive, professional community created by nurses for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), community settings, and agency roles.
We bring together experienced CHC nurses, new agency nurses, and healthcare professionals who want to develop their careers, share knowledge, and navigate the challenges of CHC practice in a safe, confidential environment.
Only another nurse truly understands the daily pressures, emotional load, and responsibility that come with nursing; our network exists to make that journey easier, more connected, and more rewarding.
What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is an invite-only community of around 500 specialist CHC agency nurses who actively collaborate, support each other, and exchange professional insights 24/7/365 through private online groups and regular events.
Members use the network to build professional connections, access peer support, stay updated on CHC processes, and grow their expertise in all aspects of Continuing Healthcare and community practice.
Many nurses who join our community go on to form lasting friendships, long-term professional partnerships, and stronger, more sustainable careers in CHC agency work.

Our Core Services for CHC Agency Nurses & Healthcare Providers
1. CHC-Focused Networking & Peer Support
At the heart of the CHC Nurses Agency Network is a strong, supportive community built on trust, confidentiality, and shared experience.
We bring together CHC agency nurses from different regions and backgrounds who want to share cases, discuss challenges, and support one another through the realities of Continuing Healthcare work.
Our members regularly discuss topics such as CHC eligibility, complex discharges, risk management, and multi‑disciplinary working, providing real-time support and practical advice when it is needed most.
2. Private Social Media Groups & 24/7 Professional Discussion
We host several confidential, invite-only social media groups where CHC nurses can safely share experiences and seek guidance from colleagues.
These groups are active 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, ensuring that support is available whenever you are working, whether on day shifts, nights, or weekends.
Our digital spaces are designed to be a safe, non-judgemental environment where nurses can ask questions, reflect on difficult cases, and access a network of professionals who understand the pressures of CHC and agency roles.
3. Regular Events, Meet‑Ups & Learning Sessions
The CHC Nurses Agency Network runs regular events, meet‑ups, and informal learning sessions to bring our community together in person and online.
Events may include peer learning workshops, CHC‑focused discussion groups, wellbeing sessions, and social gatherings designed to help nurses relax, connect, and grow.
These events are an ideal opportunity to build relationships, explore new opportunities, and stay up to date with changes in Continuing Healthcare practice and community care.
4. Guidance on CHC Processes, Transitions & Community Practice
Although the CHC Nurses Agency Network is not a regulatory body, we provide a space where experienced nurses can share best practice around CHC pathways, assessments, and reviews.
Members frequently discuss topics such as:
- CHC eligibility assessments and Decision Support Tools (DSTs).
- Transitions of care between hospital, community, and home settings.
- Care planning for complex needs in CHC and community environments.
- Safeguarding, risk assessments, and legal frameworks relevant to CHC.
This collective expertise helps nurses enhance the quality and safety of care they provide in their agency roles.
5. Informal Training, Resources & Professional Development
Our network is a rich source of informal training and shared learning, created and contributed to by CHC nurses working on the frontline.
Through shared resources, case discussions, and event content, members can deepen their understanding of CHC frameworks, documentation, and best practice.
We actively encourage continuous professional development by promoting relevant external training, courses, and guidance that support nurses in building their CHC agency careers.
