CHC Nurses Agency Network: Community, Training & Support for CHC Agency Nurses
The UK’s Supportive Network for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated community for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) agency nurses across the UK, created to support your professional development, wellbeing, and day-to-day practice.
We connect CHC nurses who understand the realities of agency work, offering a safe and friendly space to share knowledge, access guidance, and build long-term professional relationships.
A Relaxed, Supportive Community for CHC Agency Nurses
A Place Where CHC Nurses Truly Understand Each Other
Peer Support from Nurses Who “Get It”
Only another nurse knows the pressure, responsibility, and emotional demands that come with caring for patients with complex needs and CHC packages.
Our network brings together around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals who share similar roles, challenges, and expectations, so you can talk openly with people who understand your work and your world.
A Safe Space to Talk, Share and Ask Questions
We host confidential, invite-only social media groups where members can discuss professional issues, ask practical questions, and seek advice 24/7, all within a supportive peer community.
From clinical queries to workplace concerns and CHC process challenges, there is always someone available who has been there before and can offer real-world insight.
Building Professional Contacts and Long-Term Friendships
Grow Your Professional Network in CHC
Being part of the CHC Nurses Agency Network helps you build a strong professional network within Continuing Healthcare, giving you more opportunities to connect with experienced nurses, share best practice, and stay informed.
Our members value the chance to ask, learn and share in a relaxed environment where everyone is on a similar journey as a CHC agency nurse.
Friendships that Last Beyond the Shift
Many of our members become friends as well as colleagues, and those connections often last for years as they move between roles, agencies and regions.
We are proud to have built a community where CHC agency nurses stay in touch long term, supporting one another through each stage of their careers.
Events, Training & Professional Development for CHC Agency Nurses
Regular Networking Events and Meet-Ups
Connecting the CHC Agency Nursing Community
We run regular events to bring CHC agency nurses together, both online and in person, so you can network, share experiences and feel part of a wider professional community.
These events are designed to be relaxed, informative and inclusive, helping you to build confidence, make connections and access new opportunities in Continuing Healthcare.
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Training, Learning & Resources
Strengthening Your CHC Knowledge and Skills
Through our network, you can access guidance and shared resources around CHC eligibility, assessments, care planning, funding processes and case management, all tailored to the practical realities of agency nursing.
We highlight relevant workshops, webinars and training opportunities that help you stay up to date with CHC policy changes, best practice and legal frameworks across the UK.
Learning from Real CHC Cases
Members often share real-life CHC scenarios (with appropriate confidentiality) to discuss what worked, what didn’t, and how to improve care and documentation for complex cases.
This collaborative learning environment helps you build confidence in dealing with CHC reviews, MDT meetings, DSTs, appeals and funding decisions, especially in an agency context.
24/7 Confidential Online Groups for CHC Agency Nurses
Invite-Only Social Media Groups
Private, Secure Discussion Spaces
Our core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals stays connected through multiple confidential, invite-only social media groups, designed to protect your privacy and professional reputation.
These groups are closely moderated to keep discussions respectful, supportive, and focused on professional development and safe practice.
Support Available 24-7-365
Whether you are on a night shift, in between placements or preparing for a CHC review, you can reach out at any time and know someone within the network will respond.
This 24/7 access to peers makes your life as an agency nurse easier, less isolating, and more supported, particularly when dealing with complex CHC packages in community or residential settings.
