I’m applying for a job at a hospital, and I can’t find the name of the human-resources manager or director of the department anywhere on the website. Is it okay to address my cover to noone in particular?

If you want to really impress them-call the hospital-ask the operator to transfer you to human resources. The person in HR, whoever picks up will defnitley know their name! Just say you’re addresing a resume to the HR manager and would like a contact name to send it to. Most likely, they will give it to you, no problem. I’m an HR rep myself so I know!
“Dear Hiring Manager is okay to use”.
….however, **if you really want to work at this hospital, go there in person and ask at the Service desk, Volunteer desk. I am confident that you would be able to find out the name you are looking for. Then you have the necessary information to complete your letter.
Don’t use “Dear”, it’s not professional – use ‘Attention’
Dear Sir/Ms. is the proper form of salutation – given the lack of details as to the persons name or title.
keep “dear” out of it. to whom it may concern is your safest bet.
I wouldn’t put “dear hiring manager”, I would just put Attn: Human Resources, or Manager
Yes, it is ok to address the letter to the Hiring Manager, but I would substitute “Dear” or “To the Hiring Manager ” instead.
I would go with “To whom it may concern”
It is important to address the cover letter. Since Human resource department takes care of Recruitments, letter can simply be addressed as:
The concerned person,
Human Resources department,
Company name.
