Abstract:
Numerous health care facilities, located in downtown metropolitan areas, now find themselves surrounded by a decaying inner-city environment.

This paper presents a case study of such a health care facility and how strategic planning and marketing research were conducted in order to identify market opportunities and new strategic directions.
