As per reports, only 50 COVID patients will be admitted to the facility currently. Reportedly, the latest facility has a total of 768 beds but all cannot be opened for the patients due to the scarcity of oxygen supplies. Individuals seeking admission have to contact the help desk by calling at 7023557768. Alternatively, the control room can also be called at 7568652770 for getting confirmation.

Reports state that RT-PCR result, HRCT score of less than 13 and SPO2 count between the range 88-93, will be checked before providing admission to the COVID patients. Based on the doctor's evaluation, people with negative RT PCR reports will also be taken into the facility. Currently, the 50 beds being made available are equipped with oxygen concentrators. Reportedly, the total count of beds is equally divided amongst men and women.

According to reports, the Jaipur Development Authority has toilets, power supply, fans, circuit television cameras and other essential amenities at the centre. Facilities for drinking water, tea, breakfast and meals will be available for both the patients and the caretakers.
