Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Multi-Purpose Health Workers (MPHW) under National AYUSH Mission Kasaragod are deployed across AYUSH Health & Wellness Centres (AHWCs) and District Ayurveda Hospital facilities. The primary responsibilities include patient registration, recording vital signs, assisting medical officers in outpatient clinics, maintaining medicine stock registers, patient dressing, and community health outreach for lifestyle disease prevention. The work culture follows standard government dispensary hours (9:00 AM to 4:00 PM) in a supportive community healthcare environment.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

The engagement is purely temporary on a contractual basis, initially for a period of up to one year, extendable on an annual basis based on satisfactory performance assessment and project renewal from the State AYUSH Health Society. Postings are located within Kasaragod district at Padannakkad and designated district health centers.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

As a project-funded contractual appointment under the National AYUSH Mission, there is no permanent state service absorption or cadre promotion ladder. However, the fixed consolidated remuneration of ₹15,000/- per month offers steady regional clinical employment, and experience gained in state AYUSH wellness centers provides valuable weightage in upcoming Kerala PSC Staff Nurse and health worker selections.
