12,295 nurses are assigned to National Service

The National Service Scheme (NSS) has announced the deployment of 12,295 nurses who have enrolled to perform their mandatory one-year national service at accredited health facilities across the country during the 2023/2024 service year.

On Saturday, June 10, 2023, the NSS Management issued a press release announcing the postings, signifying an important milestone for these healthcare professionals.

To ensure a seamless transition into their service, the deployed nurses are instructed to follow the NSS-outlined validation and registration procedure.

They are instructed to access the Scheme's website at www.nss.gov.gh in order to confirm their placement and print their appointment letters. The nurses must then proceed to their respective healthcare facilities to have their appointment letters endorsed. They must then schedule an online appointment for registration and validation, indicating the date and time they will complete the process.

From Monday, June 12, 2023, to Friday, June 30, 2023, the NSS Regional Validation and Registration Centres will be open to facilitate the validation and registration process for all deployed nurses. Before beginning their mandatory national service, nurses must complete these procedures.



The NSS Management has instructed all deployed nurses to begin their service on July 3, 2023, promptly following validation and registration. In the event that any registered nurses encounter difficulties during validation and registration, NSS Regional Directors and registration personnel will be available to provide support and assistance.
