National Health Mission, Kerala has opened a fresh NHM Kannur recruitment dated 6 October 2026 for six healthcare post categories. The current official Kannur recruitment page provides separate online application forms for Dental Surgeon, Staff Nurse-Palliative, Clinical Psychologist, Development Therapist, Dental Hygienist and Adolescent Health Counselor.
The official web listing confirms that applications are invited for these six categories, but the searchable listing does not display the current vacancy count, closing date, detailed qualification, age limit or remuneration. Candidates should therefore use the current notification/form for the post they choose and should not rely on figures copied from older NHM Kannur recruitments.

Qualification and Registration Requirements
The current searchable NHM Kannur listing does not expose the detailed qualification table for this 6 October recruitment. Because NHM healthcare posts often have profession-specific degree, diploma and council-registration requirements, applicants should check the current notification or application form for the exact post before submitting.
Do not assume that an older NHM Kannur notification has the same qualification, experience or registration requirement. In particular, nursing, dental and psychology posts may require professional council registration or additional post-specific certification.
Use the Regal Naukri Eligibility Pre-check only as a personal checklist after reading the current official requirement.
Age Limit
The public recruitment index entry dated 6 October 2026 does not show the current age cut-off or post-wise age limit.
Do not use an age limit from an older NHM Kannur cycle for this recruitment. Open the current notification/application form and note both the maximum age and the reference date before deciding eligibility.
Once you have the official cut-off date, the Regal Naukri Age Calculator can help calculate your age precisely.
Salary / Remuneration
The official current recruitment index does not show the remuneration for the six posts.
NHM remuneration can differ substantially by role and programme, so this article does not reuse pay figures from earlier Kannur notices. Candidates should rely on the salary/remuneration shown in the current notification or relevant application form.
Vacancy Count
The official 6 October recruitment entry lists six post categories, but it does not state how many vacancies are available under each category in the searchable page.
Accordingly, six post categories must not be treated as six vacancies. The actual vacancy count should be taken only from the current notification.
Application Deadline
The searchable official entry confirms the recruitment date but does not display a closing date for these six forms.
Candidates should open the relevant application form immediately and confirm whether submissions are still being accepted. This article intentionally does not publish an estimated or assumed deadline.
Selection Process
The current searchable listing does not expose a selection schedule or stage-wise method for this recruitment.
NHM district selections may involve scrutiny, certificate verification, written/skill assessment and/or interview depending on the post, but candidates should rely only on the process stated for the current 6 October 2026 recruitment.
Any exam, interview or certificate-verification notice issued later by NHM Kerala will control the selection process.
Documents to Keep Ready
Even where the current form determines the final upload requirements, candidates can prepare the standard records normally needed to support a healthcare recruitment application:
- recent photograph;
- date-of-birth proof;
- post-specific educational certificates and mark sheets;
- professional registration certificate, where required;
- experience certificate, where required;
- identity proof;
- category or reservation certificate, where applicable; and
- other documents specifically requested in the current form.
Use the Government Job Document Checklist to organise the records before opening the final application form.
