I believe the answer is:

sanatoria

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'patients here?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'atmosphere's raised about bodily form losing my' is the wordplay.
'atmosphere's' becomes 'airs' ('air' can be a synonym of 'atmosphere').
'raised' is a reversal indicator (going up in a down clue).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'bodily form' becomes 'anatomy' (someone's body).
'losing' is a deletion indicator.
'airs' in reverse letter order is 'sria'.
'anatomy' with 'my' taken out is 'anato'.
'sria' enclosing 'anato' is 'SANATORIA'.

(Other definitions for sanatoria that I've seen before include "Treatment centres" , "Hospitals for recuperation" , "Lodgings for patients" , "nursing homes?" , "Convalescent hospitals" .)
