Overview

DHS Pudukkottai Recruitment 2026 (54 Posts), Apply Offline by 29 September 2026 in Tamil Nadu. District Health Society Pudukkottai (DHS Pudukkottai) has released a recruitment notification for 54 contractual posts spanning ten categories, including Medical Officer (RTI, Thiruvarankulam), Medical Officer (UHWC), Audiologist, Audiometric Assistant, MPHW-Male/HI Grade II, Mid Level Health Care Provider (MLHP), Auxiliary Nursing Midwife (ANM), MMU-Cleaner, TAEI-MPHW, and Medical Officer (NTEP, Medical College TB Cell). This DHS Pudukkottai government job 2026 opportunity spans qualifications from Class 8 pass to MBBS with internship. Eligible candidates aged 18 to 65 years who meet the post-specific qualification below can apply offline through the official website before the closing date. District Health Societies operate under the National Health Mission framework, and this single notification bundles staff across several distinct national health programmes running in Pudukkottai district simultaneously — RTI/STI services at Thiruvarankulam, Urban Health and Wellness Centre operations, hearing-impairment screening through Audiology, mid-level primary care via the MLHP model, and tuberculosis control under the National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP). The heavy concentration of vacancies in the MPHW-Male/HI Grade II category — 42 of the 54 total posts — suggests a significant staffing gap at the frontline multipurpose health worker level, which forms the backbone of village- and block-level public health delivery in Tamil Nadu, coordinating immunisation drives, disease surveillance, and basic curative care under medical officer supervision. Selected candidates will support public health functions across Pudukkottai district under various national health programmes, including reproductive and tract infection care, urban health and wellness, hearing screening, mid-level primary care, and tuberculosis control. The DHS Pudukkottai 2026 selection process consists of an Interview, with no separate written examination. The monthly remuneration for DHS Pudukkottai 2026 ranges from ₹11,000 for MMU-Cleaner and TAEI-MPHW to ₹63,000 for Medical Officer (UHWC) and Medical Officer (NTEP, Medical College TB Cell), on a contractual basis. The DHS Pudukkottai 2026 offline application process opened on 10 September 2026, and the last date to apply is 29 September 2026. No application fee has been mentioned in the notification for any category. Candidates must read the complete official DHS Pudukkottai notification PDF at pudukkottai.nic.in before applying, since the largest single share of vacancies — 42 of the 54 posts — falls under MPHW-Male/HI Grade II alone, and each of the remaining nine post types carries a distinct qualification requirement.
