In 1963, the name was changed to Midori Municipal Hospital when Nagoya City merged with the town of Narumi. As the population rapidly increased, the south building was expanded and the main building was completely renovated, and hospital beds were added to cope with the increase in patients. Furthermore, under a two-year plan starting in 1996, the North Wing was expanded to improve the medical care system. Later, in 2012, a designated administrator system was introduced.
