CM Siddaramaiah unveils 371-bed Sri Jayadeva Hospital in Kalaburagi

As per the recent media report, Mr Priyank told the Hindu, “The opening of the branch in 2016 was a major step that the Congress government had taken to expand health facilities in the region. When Kalyana Karnataka region celebrates 10 years of its special status, which is accorded to it under Article 371(J) of the Constitution, we have now built a new building with a 371-bed capacity for the branch.”

The key feature of the new Jayadeva Institute branch is its commitment to making advanced cardiac care accessible to everyone, particularly underserved populations. The new hospital will have 105 ICU beds, 120 general wards, three operation theatres, and three cardiac cath labs besides CT and MRI units.

According to Deccan Herald, Patil said, “A total of Rs 377.17 crore has been spent on the construction, equipment, and other facilities at the hospital. Of the 377.17 crores, Rs 262 crore has been spent on building construction and the remaining amount for medical equipment, furniture,e and other works. The hospital has been currently operating in the GIMS building and will be relocated to the new building in January.”

The minister emphasized that the hospital will be fully staffed, with a primary focus on establishing a super-specialty hospital alongside the mother and child hospital following the inauguration of the Jayadeva Institute. This expansion aims to alleviate the heavy patient influx at GIMS Hospital. Additionally, the new facility will be equipped with all essential infrastructure, including a reliable drinking water supply, to ensure a seamless healthcare experience for patients.
