This is an excellent opportunity for qualified nursing professionals seeking overseas employment with attractive salary and benefits.

The recruitment is open exclusively for female candidates with nursing qualifications and relevant experience. Selected candidates will receive company-sponsored visa, accommodation support, transportation facilities, medical insurance, and other benefits. Since this is a free recruitment, no recruitment fee is charged by ODEPC.

If you have nursing experience and are interested in building your career in the UAE healthcare sector, this opportunity is worth considering before the application deadline.

Eligibility Criteria

Candidates applying for the Assistant Nurse position must possess either a B.Sc Nursing degree or GNM qualification. Applicants with or without MOH/DHA License can apply for the recruitment.

The notification specifically states that candidates having Dataflow completed or ongoing Dataflow processing are also eligible to apply. However, candidates who do not currently possess a MOH/DHA License must secure the required license after selection.

The recruitment is open only to female candidates between 20 and 40 years of age. Applicants should have a minimum of one year of experience in a hospital, clinic, or homecare environment. Good English communication skills are mandatory as the role involves direct patient care and interaction.

Required Clinical Skills

The employer is looking for candidates who can independently manage patients in a homecare setting. Applicants should possess practical nursing skills and experience in patient care.

Candidates should be familiar with:

• Tracheostomy Care
• Catheter Care
• Bedsore Prevention and Treatment
• Enteral Feeding through NGT or PEG
• Patient Observation and Monitoring
• Critical Thinking and Clinical Decision Making
• Independent Homecare Nursing Practice

Since the role involves working in patients' homes, candidates should be comfortable working independently and handling responsibilities without direct supervision.

Salary & Benefits

Selected candidates will receive a monthly salary of AED 3,500. In addition to the salary, the employer provides several attractive benefits that significantly reduce living expenses in the UAE.

Accommodation is provided free of rent. However, employees will need to share utility expenses such as electricity, water, and internet charges, which are estimated at approximately AED 100–150 per month depending on usage and the number of occupants sharing the accommodation.

The company also provides transportation facilities including pick-up and drop-off services. Medical insurance coverage under a basic plan is included, along with free GP consultations during the first contract period.

Working Hours & Overtime

The work schedule consists of 15 days of duty per month, with each duty period extending for 24 hours. This amounts to a total of 360 working hours per month.

Candidates who work beyond the prescribed 360 hours will be eligible for overtime compensation as per company policy. This provides an opportunity for additional earnings depending on operational requirements.

Selection Process

The selection process will be based on the screening of applications and evaluation of qualifications, nursing experience, communication skills, and suitability for homecare assignments.

Shortlisted candidates may be contacted for further assessment, interview, or employer selection procedures. Final selection will be subject to document verification and fulfillment of licensing requirements where applicable.
