Which DHS Ramgarh Post Suits You?
Not sure where to start? Match your qualification to the group below.
If you have passed 10+2: – Staff Nurse (GNM) and SNCU GNM, if you hold the GNM course – ANM, if you hold the ANM course – Lab Technician, if you hold an MLT diploma or certificate
If you hold a diploma: – Pharmacist (NUHM and RBSK) and Ayush Pharmacist – STLS, which also needs a computer certificate and a two-wheeler licence
