            Improved public health is one of the priorities of the QC Government.  A three-tiered health service approach was rationalize, which strengthens health services at the barangay and district level and streamlines the patients that would need the services of City hospitals. People are encouraged to approach barangay health stations for minor health concerns.  If necessary, these community health stations refer cases to the main regular health centers or the Sentrong Sigla Health Centers which have better facilities for health care, including laboratory facilities.   

            Under the Belmonte administration, the City Government has vigorously exerted more efforts to improve and expand the public health system at all levels.  Construction of new health centers, improvement and upgrading of existing facilities are underway, with logistical support in equipment, supplies, laboratory and medicines.

            Existing lying-in clinics will be expanded and improved to include an emergency and rehydration clinic.  The Sta. Lucia Health Center and the Sta. Lucia Primary Hospital will be integrated into one Super Health Center.  Another Super Health Center, frontrunner to a hospital will be built in Area 7 at Barangay Batasan Hills.
