CHC Nurses Agency Network: Your Professional Community for CHC Nursing Excellence
A Supportive UK Network for CHC Agency Nurses
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is a dedicated professional community for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) agency nurses across the UK, designed to make your working life easier, more connected, and more rewarding.
We bring CHC nurses together through peer support, expert training, networking events, and confidential online groups, helping you build your knowledge, confidence, and career in CHC nursing.
Why Join the CHC Nurses Agency Network?
A Community That Understands CHC Nursing
Only another nurse truly understands the pressure, complexity, and emotional demands of frontline care, and that’s why our network is built by and for nurses working within the Continuing Healthcare framework.
Within our private community, you can share experiences, ask questions, and talk openly about agency work, CHC processes, and daily challenges in a safe, supportive space.
Grow Your Professional Network & Friendships
We host a core network of around 500 CHC agency nursing professionals from across the UK, many of whom develop strong professional contacts and lasting friendships.
Members stay in touch daily through our confidential, invite-only social media groups, and regularly meet at our CHC-focused events, workshops, and networking sessions.
Relax, Connect & Share in a Safe Space
The CHC Nurses Agency Network is not just about work – it is also a place to relax, offload, and connect with people who understand your world.
Our private groups and events give you space to talk honestly about shifts, stress, caseloads, and agency life, knowing that your conversations remain confidential within the network.
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Knowledge, Training & Best Practice
CHC Training & Learning Opportunities
We support CHC agency nurses with ongoing learning opportunities that strengthen your understanding of Continuing Healthcare eligibility, assessments, funding, and care planning.
Through our events, online discussions, and shared resources, you gain up-to-date knowledge on CHC frameworks, DSTs, MDT working, and person-centred care for complex and high-needs patients.
Focus on CHC Processes & Community-Based Care
Our network actively shares insight on the practical realities of CHC work, including community-based care, complex discharges, community DoLS (Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards), and risk management in home and care home settings.
By learning from peers with extensive CHC experience, you can streamline your practice, improve documentation, and strengthen clinical decision-making in line with CHC requirements.
Professional Support for Agency Nurses Working in CHC
24/7 Peer Support via Confidential Groups
Our members stay connected 24-7-365 through a range of confidential, invite-only social media groups created exclusively for CHC agency nurses.
Here you can ask clinical questions, discuss CHC-related issues, share practical tips, and support each other in managing workload, expectations, and professional boundaries.
Sharing Professional Issues & Real-World Solutions
Within the CHC Nurses Agency Network, we openly share professional issues such as documentation challenges, MDT pressures, safeguarding concerns, and communication with CCGs/ICBs and providers.
This culture of openness helps you identify solutions faster, feel less isolated, and benefit from the collective experience of colleagues who have worked across a variety of CHC settings and organisations.
Events, Meetups & Networking for CHC Agency Nurses
Regular CHC-Focused Events Across the UK
We run regular events to bring our CHC nursing community together, including informal meetups, networking sessions, and topic-specific workshops focused on Continuing Healthcare practice.
These events are a great way to build relationships, share knowledge, explore new roles, and stay current with developments in CHC, community care, and national policy changes.
Blending Social Connection with Professional Development
Our events are designed to be both relaxed and professionally valuable, giving you the chance to unwind while also enhancing your understanding of CHC and agency working.
Many nurses who meet through our network go on to collaborate professionally, recommend opportunities, and support each other’s career progression over many years.
