Sawai Man Singh Hospital is the major hospital of Jaipur and Rajasthan state of India. This government hospital is staffed with 1500 doctors and 4000 nurses with 6251 beds in 43 wards and daily more than 10000 OPD.Infact it surpassed AIIMS Delhi in terms of number of patients in OPD and surgeries. The construction of the hospital building began in 1934. The hospital is named after Sawai Man Singh II, then King of Jaipur. The hospital also provides practical training to the students of the Sawai Man Singh Medical College. SMS hospital is under pressure due to a large number of patients and rare diseased patients from across the state as it is one of the few government super speciality hospitals.[2]
Presently, there are over 168 beds in intensive care units and 51 in semi-intensive care units of the hospital. But the shortage of nursing staff is a concern in intensive care units. The ratio of nursing staff in intensive care units is one nurse per 6-7 beds at the hospital. However, it has been recommended that there should be one nurse for two patients in intensive care units. It is recognised as one of the best hospitals in India, with many faculties working all over the world. It was this hospital which acted very fast on covid19 in its initial phase in 2020.
