District Health Society Kancheepuram NTEP Recruitment 2026 - 12 Posts

District Health Society Kancheepuram has issued a notification for contract posts linked to TB programme work at primary health centres, government hospitals, and the DTC Kancheepuram office.

This is a good option if you have medical lab, public health, counselling, or field health-worker experience and want district-level health programme work.

This is one combined DHS Kancheepuram notice for three NTEP roles. Apply only for the post that matches your qualification, because the LT role is laboratory-focused, the TB Health Visitor role is field and health-education focused, and the DRTB Counsellor role needs counselling or social-science background.
