Holy Name Medical Center is a fully accredited, not-for-profit healthcare facility based in Teaneck, Bergen County, New Jersey, United States, with off-site locations throughout Bergen County, and in Hudson and Passaic counties. Founded and sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace in 1925, the comprehensive 361-bed medical center offers medical practice and technology. Furthermore, Holy Name Medical Center has undertaken an effort to provide comprehensive health care services to underinsured and uninsured Korean patients from a wide area with its growing Korean Medical Program,[1][2][3][4] and launched a similar Chinese Medical Program and Filipino Medical Program in 2015 as components of its larger Asian Medical Program,[5] with an Asian Dementia Center planned in 2016.[6]

The institution was known as Holy Name Hospital until its name was changed in March 2010.[7]
