In a significant step towards further strengthening healthcare services across Himachal Pradesh, the state government has issued appointment letters to 259 Assistant Staff Nurses to be deployed in Government Medical Colleges and hospitals and the Atal Institute of Medical Super Specialities (AIMSS), Chamiana, Shimla.
These appointments have been made on the recommendations of the Himachal Pradesh Rajya Chayan Aayog, Hamirpur. The newly recruited Assistant Staff Nurses will be posted in IGMC, Shimla, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Government Medical College Tanda, Dr. Yashwant Singh Parmar Medical College, Nahan, Dr. Radhakrishnan Government Medical College, Hamirpur, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Government Medical College, Nerchowk, Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru Government Medical College, Chamba as well as the AIMSS, Chamiana.
The recruitment is expected to augment the existing healthcare workforce, improve patient care and strengthen the functioning of tertiary healthcare institutions in the State. The induction of trained nursing personnel will also help meet the growing demand for quality medical services and ensuring better healthcare services to the patients. Earlier in June, 2026, the government had appointed 372 Assistant Staff Nurses in various Government Medical Colleges across the State.
Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said that the state government was committed to providing accessible, affordable and quality healthcare facilities to every citizen. He said that strengthening the healthcare system remained one of the highest priorities of the government and every possible effort was being made to equip medical institutions with adequate infrastructure and skilled human resources.
The Chief Minister said that the recruitment of Assistant Staff Nurses was another important step towards improving healthcare services in the state. He added that the government would continue to fill vacant posts in the health sector and undertake necessary measures to ensure that government hospitals and medical colleges are adequately staffed to provide efficient and patient-centric healthcare services.
