In 1910 the Board of Governors of New York Hospital changed its name to Bloomindgale Hospital. In 1936 it changed to its present designation, "the New York Hospital-Westchester Division." The Bloomingdale Committee suceeded the Asylum Committee in 1895. In 1939, the Committee changed its name to the Westchester Division Committee, which merged with the Payne Whitney Psychiatric Committee in 1968. This Committee is now referred to as the Psychiatric Committee.
