The birth of Montefiore Hospital arose from a series of meetings held in early 1884 among representatives of New York City's synagogues, convened by Dr. [[Henry Pereira Mendes]], to honor [[Sir Moses Montefiore]] on his forthcoming one-hundredth birthday. Out of these meetings, held in the rooms of [[Congregation Shearith Israel]], the Montefiore Home for Chronic Invalids, now the Montefiore Hospital, came into being at East 84th Street in [[Manhattan]] and accepted its first six patients on October 24, 1884,<ref>{{cite news |title=The Home for Chronic Invalids |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1884/10/27/archives/the-home-for-chronic-invalids.html|access-date=October 24, 2018 |work=The New York Times |date=October 27, 1884|page=5}}</ref> Moses Montefiore's birthday.

Montefiore established the first Department of Social Medicine and the first home health care agency in the United States. In 2001, it established a pediatric hospital, the Children's Hospital at Montefiore. The hospital made international headlines when a series of operations successfully separated the [[conjoined twins]] [[Carl and Clarence Aguirre]] of the [[Philippines]]. The [[Montefiore Headache Center]], the oldest headache center in the world, was ranked number one among New York Best Hospitals in 2006 by ''[[New York Magazine]]''. The Emergency Department is among the five busiest in the United States. Its hospitals provide more than 85,000 inpatient stays per year, including more than 7,000 births. In 2007, it was among over 530 New York City arts and social service institutions to receive part of a $20&nbsp;million grant from the [[Carnegie Corporation]], which was made possible through a donation by [[New York City mayor]] [[Michael Bloomberg]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Roberts|first1=Sam|title=City Groups Get Bloomberg Gift of $20 Million |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/07/06/nyregion/06donate.html?ex=1278302400&en=93a1beabd4ede5b8&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss|date=July 6, 2005|access-date=August 8, 2017}}</ref> On September 9, 2015, Montefiore assumed operational and financial oversight of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine from [[Yeshiva University]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/montefiore-health-system-and-yeshiva-university-finalize-joint-agreement-for-albert-einstein-college-of-medicine-300140420.html|title=Montefiore Health System And Yeshiva University Finalize Joint Agreement For Albert Einstein College Of Medicine|first=Montefiore Health|last=System|agency=PR Newswire}}</ref>

Montefiore Health System consists of fifteen hospitals; a primary and specialty care network of more than 180 locations across Westchester County, the lower Hudson Valley and the Bronx; an extended care facility; the Montefiore School of Nursing, and its own [[Albert Einstein College of Medicine]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Montefiore hospital and outpatient locations|website=Montefiore|url=https://www.montefiore.org/contact-montefiore}}</ref> In 2022, there were 1,530 staffed beds on its Moses Campus.<ref name=AHD />

Montefiore is also home to the Montefiore Einstein Center for Cancer Care, the Montefiore Einstein Center for Heart and Vascular Care, and the Montefiore Einstein Center for Transplantation. Montefiore also runs a [[Montefiore Residency Program in Social Medicine|residency Program in Social Medicine]], one of the nation's oldest programs focused on preparing physicians to practice in underserved communities.

The '''Montefiore Residency Program in Social Medicine ''' is one of the oldest [[primary care]] training programs in the United States.<ref>[http://www.socialmedicine.org/2008/09/05/residency-program-in-social-medicine/a-brief-history-of-the-residency-program-in-social-medicine-the-dfsm/ Brief History of the Residency Program in Social Medicine and the Department of Family and Social Medicine]</ref><ref>{{cite journal| pmid=18367900 | doi=10.1097/ACM.0b013e31816684a4 | volume=83 | issue=4 | title=The residency program in social medicine of Montefiore Medical Center: 37 years of mission-driven, interdisciplinary training in primary care, population health, and social medicine | year=2008 | journal=Acad Med | pages=378–89 | last1 = Strelnick | first1 = AH | last2 = Swiderski | first2 = D | last3 = Fornari | first3 = A | last4 = Gorski | first4 = V | last5 = Korin | first5 = E | last6 = Ozuah | first6 = P | last7 = Townsend | first7 = JM | last8 = Selwyn | first8 = PA}}</ref> It is located in [[Bronx]], New York which contains some of the poorest urban districts in the United States. It is managed by the [https://www.einstein.yu.edu/departments/family-social-medicine/ Montefiore Department of Family and Social Medicine] and offers training in 3 primary care specialties: [[internal medicine]], [[family medicine]] and [[pediatrics]]. It has trained over 700 physicians in primary care with a focus on [[Health equity|medically underserved]] populations.

The program was founded in 1970 by Drs. Harold Wise and David Kindig. In 1973 family practice was added as a third track. Residents worked in partnerships and maintained their continuity practices at the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Health Center, which Dr. Wise had begun in 1968. The RSPM was their response to the difficulty of recruiting physicians to MLK who could work effectively with the community and other members of the health care team. At the time MLK was the flagship of the [[Community health centers in the United States|neighborhood health center movement]] of the [[Office of Economic Opportunity]], the main federal agency coordinating [[Lyndon Johnson]]'s [[War on Poverty]].
