This appears before the name of a rehabilitation hospital; can't find a good translation for it and am unsure of how to fit it into (before/after) the hospital name. Full name: 医療法人社団輝生会初台リハビリテーション病院. Suggestions for what to do with the "kiseikai" (?) would be appreciated too.

A lot of the ¥"医療法人社団¥" organizations call them ¥"medical corporation¥".
See the following link:

Adding ¥"incorporated¥" gets no result, so it is thought that adding it will not be suitable. Google gives one site for ¥"医療法人社団¥" + ¥"medical¥" + ¥"incorporated¥", but this link is not relevant as far as I read the content.

So, ¥"医療法人社団輝生会¥" will be either ¥"Keseikai Medical Corporation¥" or ¥"Medical Corporateion Kiseikai¥".
Not to mention, ¥"初台リハビリテーション病院¥" will be ¥"Hatsudai Rehabilitation Hospital¥".

Comment: "Thanks -- I had a vague recollection of having seen it as "medical corporation" previously, but wasn't sure and couldn't seem to bring it up anywhere I looked. I'll go with Medical Corporation Kiseikai Hatsudai Rehabilitation Hospital, unwieldy as it seems. Still not quite confident about placement of the "Kiseikai" but since it does appear to be a part of the name, I'll keep it untranslated and in this spot. Thank you!"

Medical incorporated association
How about that.
社団法人 or 法人 is incorporated association.
I guess 初台 is a place name. Kiseikai should not be changed since it is a proper noun.
Medical incorporation, Kiseikai rehabilitation hospital
