© 1998 Case Teaching Package Length Abstract
The case describes the difficulties encountered by HIV-affected individuals in the seventeen-county Northeast New York Region in receiving the transportation services necessary to maintain a desirable quality of life and how a transportation committee of not-for-profit health service providers grapples with this problem.
The case directs students, through the character of Mary O'Brien, to understand the need for the Committee to gather further information and expertise on client transportation. Second, students are asked to move the problem forward past the Committee's negativity. Questions are provided in the teaching note for the instructor's use to help students focus in some of the key issues raised.
This case was written for undergraduates taking an introductory Management & Organizational Behavior course, although the case could also be utilized with undergraduate classes dealing with the topics of Not-for-Profit Management, Health Care/Social Service Delivery Systems, Public Administration, and Business Policy.
