There are two separate Staff Nurse rows. They differ in programme and place of posting, so check the row that matches where you want to work. The first row is printed with a category line, and it is shown here exactly as the notice prints it.
| Post and Programme | Place of Posting | Vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Staff Nurse (XVFC Health Grants) | Any UHWC under Rampurhat Health District | 4 |
| Staff Nurse (NUHM) | UPHC under Rampurhat Municipality | 1 |
For the XVFC row the notice prints the category line as 04 [01 EWS, UR(PwBD), 01 UR, 01 SC]. It does not print a separate count for UR(PwBD), so we do not state one. The single NUHM seat is reserved for EWS. If you do not hold an EWS certificate, note that the NUHM seat is not open to you.
The qualification and other criteria are the same for both rows.
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Nursing qualification | Completed GNM training course from an institute recognised by the Indian Nursing Council or West Bengal Nursing Council, or completed B.Sc. Nursing course |
| Registration | Must be registered under West Bengal Nursing Council |
| Language | Proficiency in local language; able to read, write and speak Bengali |
| Residence | Must be a permanent resident of West Bengal |
All essential qualifications must be obtained on or before the publication of the advertisement. The notice also says that the essential qualifications are only the minimum, and that mere possession of them does not entitle you to claim selection. If you are still waiting for your final result or your nursing council registration, you do not meet this condition.
| Detail | Age |
|---|---|
| Minimum age | 21 years |
| Maximum age | 40 years |
| Age counted as on | 1 January 2026 |
The notice says age relaxation will be given to reserved candidates as per government norms. It does not print the number of years, so confirm them under government norms before deciding if you are within the limit. Use the age calculator below to find your age on the cut-off date.

The monthly consolidated remuneration for both rows is Rs 25,000 (Rupees Twenty five Thousand Only). The notice does not list any other allowance or grade pay. Since this is a contractual post, treat it as a fixed monthly amount. If you are comparing this with other medical and healthcare government jobs, look at the posting place and the length of the panel too.
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Merit | Merit basis in the GNM / B.Sc. Nursing examination |
| Verification | Original testimonials verified, for which the print copy of your registration form is needed |
The notice says selection is on merit in your GNM or B.Sc. Nursing examination, so your marks there matter most. When the score-sheet is prepared, marks are calculated after rounding off up to 2 decimal points. The panel will be valid for up to 1 year from the date the panel is published.
Please read these conditions carefully, because each one can end your candidature.
