There
are 3 private hospitals and 1 public hospital (provincial hospital)
in the City. With 241 combined numbers of beds, this means
there is 1 bed available for every 523 population. But this is
being compensated by the establishment of health centers in almost
every barangay with assigned health workers, midwives, nutrition
scholars and trained hilots that provide simple health services
to the barangay resident

Presently there are
83 policemen and 22 firemen serving the whole city, which has
a total population of 126,086. This means that one policeman is
serving at least 1,519 population. This low number of policemen
is compensated by the presence of 920 civilian volunteers who
assist in keeping peace and order especially in the rural areas.
The Malaybalay City Police Station
has recorded a total of 153 crime incidents in year 2001, which
is 5.5% higher compared to previous year.
Despite its relatively
peaceful environment, the city is not totally free from drug addiction
and trafficking. The commonly abused drugs are shabu
and marijuana. Most of the apprehended drug users were sons and
daughters of prominent persons and even professionals including
government employees. Cases of sniffing of rugby among out-of-school-youth
are also recorded in the police station.
