DHS Theni Staff Nurse Recruitment 2026: Overview
The District Health Society, Theni has opened applications for Contractual / Temporary Staff Nurse posts under the National Health Mission - Tamil Nadu (NHM-TN), which runs through the state's Health and Family Welfare Department. The posts sit in health institutions working under the Directorate of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, the Directorate of Medical and Rural Health Services, the Directorate of Medical Education and Research, and the Greater Chennai Corporation. This is a district-level drive, so your application goes to the District Health Officer in Theni rather than to a state portal. If you hold a nursing qualification and a live Tamil Nadu council registration, this is one of the larger nursing openings in the district this year.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Nature of the post: the engagement is contractual and purely temporary in nature, made against the vacancies available in the institutions listed in the notice.
- Council registration: a live registration with the Tamil Nadu Nurses and Midwives Council is mandatory, alongside a nursing qualification from a government or government-approved private college recognised by the Indian Nursing Council.
- Undertaking: you must enclose a signed undertaking confirming that the information you have given in the application is correct.
- Late applications: applications that reach after the closing date and time are not accepted, and the notice says so plainly.
- Priority proof: if you belong to a category the District Health Society chairman treats as vulnerable — transgender, differently abled, destitute woman or widow, ex-serviceman — carry the certificate that proves it.
Application Submission Notes
The application form and the district-wise vacancy details are on the recruitment notices page of the Theni district website, so download and fill the prescribed form first. Send or hand in the filled application with self-attested photocopies of every supporting certificate to The District Health Officer / The Executive Secretary, District Health Society, District Health Office, Government Master Plan Complex, Theni District 625 531. Make sure the packet reaches that office before the closing time given in the notice, because there is no online submission route for this drive.
