CHC Nurses Agency Network: Continuing Healthcare Training, Support & Community for Agency Nurses
A Specialist UK Network for CHC Agency Nurses & Healthcare Professionals
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional community for nurses working in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), social care, community services, and related settings. We connect CHC agency nurses across the UK, providing expert training, networking opportunities, peer support, and up-to-date CHC guidance to help you deliver safe, effective and compliant care. Whether you are experienced in CHC or just starting out, our network is designed to support your professional growth and wellbeing.
As every nurse knows, only another nurse truly understands the pressures, responsibility and emotional demands of our work. That is why the CHC Nurses Agency Network offers a safe space to relax, share experiences, ask questions, and build meaningful professional relationships with colleagues who understand the reality of frontline nursing and CHC decision-making.
What Is the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a private, invitation-only community of around 500+ CHC agency nursing professionals who connect via secure social media groups and regular online and in‑person events. We focus on:
- Supporting nurses who work in or with Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and complex care
- Providing a confidential space to discuss practice, share resources and seek advice
- Running CHC-focused training, workshops and networking events
- Helping nurses stay up-to-date with CHC policy, NHS frameworks and best practice

Many of our members first join to make professional contacts, and go on to develop lifelong friendships with colleagues who understand their work and values. We welcome new members who are committed to high standards of care and keen to strengthen their expertise in CHC.
