CHANDIGARH: In a major step to further strengthen the public healthcare system, the Bhagwant Mann Government has issued advertisements for the recruitment of 672 Staff Nurses to enhance service delivery across government health institutions. The recruitment advertisement has been published in leading newspapers, inviting eligible candidates to apply through the official online portal of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot.
The online application portal will remain open from 13 March 2026 to 02 April 2026. Candidates can submit their applications for these posts under the Department of Health and Family Welfare, Punjab through the university’s official website.
This recruitment comes in addition to the earlier sanctioned 406 Staff Nurse posts, out of which 275 appointment orders have already been issued. The appointed nurses have been deployed at various Sub Divisional Hospitals and District Hospitals across Punjab.
Notably, in January this year, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann personally handed over appointment letters to 282 newly recruited nurses. The move reflected the Punjab Government’s continued commitment to strengthening healthcare services and demonstrated the administration’s focus on efficient governance and timely recruitment in the public health sector.
