Clinic owners often ask for a nurse and mean very different things: someone to assist the doctor, someone to run a laser, or someone to do procedures. In Dubai the title on the DHA licence decides what the person may do.
Talk to usThe Unified Healthcare Professional Qualification Requirements (PQR), used by DHA, DOH and MOHAP, set the education and licensing requirements for each title.
Every nurse working in a Dubai clinic needs an active DHA licence linked to that facility. The usual route:
Whether a nurse may perform a specific aesthetic procedure, for example injectables or laser treatments, depends on DHA rules for that procedure, the nurse's title and training, and the privileges granted by the medical director. Check the current DHA standard for each procedure before you plan the schedule around a nurse.
Monthly, AED, market estimate for Dubai.
| Level | Market estimate, AED/month |
|---|---|
| Registered nurse (clinic) | 7,000 - 12,000 |
| Aesthetic or specialised nurse | 12,000 - 18,000 |
| Nurse manager / head nurse | 18,000 - 25,000 |
We recruit registered and aesthetic nurses, prefer candidates who already hold an active DHA licence to save time, check title, BLS and training records, and plan the licence route for candidates from abroad. Recruitment fee: one month's salary of the placed employee, 50% when they start and 50% after probation, no full prepayment, free replacement within 2 months. Consulting and CRM projects are priced after a free review. Candidates never pay.
Under the unified PQR a registered nurse needs a bachelor degree in nursing and works independently within scope; an assistant nurse needs a nursing diploma of at least 18 months and works under RN supervision.
It depends on DHA rules for the specific procedure, the nurse's title and training, and the privileges granted by the medical director. Check the current DHA standard for each procedure.
With a candidate who already holds a DHA licence, often 2-4 weeks. Licensing a nurse from abroad takes longer because of verification and assessment.
