According to a press release issued on May 13, the isolation centre has 26 beds and provides free food and medical assistance from nurses, but has no oxygen and emergency services.

There are two health workers and one doctor to check the health condition of people staying in the isolation. Covid-19 patients can get health check-up, counselling and medicines as well.
