Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations.

         This item contains forward looking information that involves
uncertainties and risk which are discussed below at "Forward Looking Statements,
Cautionary Factors."

         The following discussion and analysis provides information which the
Company's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of
the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited consolidated financial
statements and related notes, and with the Company's audited consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Overview

         The Company's revenues are derived from providing home health services
to individuals, in New York and New Jersey, through various contracts with
government agencies (under the Medicaid program) and to a lesser extent
hospitals, insurance companies, private pay and other third party payers.

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1995

Net Patient Service Revenue: Net patient service revenue increased $340,437 or
21% to $1,984,892 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from $1,644,455 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995. The addition of three new satellite branches from
March 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996 increased net patient service revenue by
$578,460 or 35%. The remaining branches' net patient service revenue decreased
$238,023 or 14% , due to a reallocation of business to the new satellite
branches and an overall general decrease in authorized Medicaid reimbursable
hours by the New York State Department of Social Services (See "Forward Looking
Statements - Cautionary Factors").

Cost of Services: Cost of services increased $203,504 or 20% to $1,246,264 for
the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from $1,042,760 for the quarter ended March 31,
1995. The increase in cost of services is primarily due to increases in field
staff payroll costs resulting from the increase in net patient service revenue.
The Company's growth in the number of cases serviced increased the need for
additional field staff to service these cases.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $378,828 or 82% to $838,512 for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 from $459,684 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues
increased to 42% for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from 28% for the quarter
ended March 31, 1995. This increase reflects higher administrative salaries,
marketing and facility expenses associated with the additional branch locations,
the increase in case volume, and the Company's investment in the corporate

                                       7

       
<PAGE>


infrastructure necessary to achieve its business strategy. In addition,
professional fees increased due to the Company's commitment to resume filing the
reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company
anticipates the current levels of selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percentage of net revenue to continue over the next three months and
subsequently decline throughout the remainder of the year.

(Benefit) Provision For Income taxes: The income tax benefit derived from the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 loss from operations is based on a 38% effective
tax rate compared to an income tax provision derived from the quarter ended
March 31, 1995 income from operations which was based on a 44% effective tax
rate. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate was primarily due to the
reduction of certain permanent taxable differences.

Inflation and Seasonality

         Medicaid reimbursements, which represent the Company's principal source
of revenue, have historically been adjusted to keep pace with inflation. There
can be no assurance that future Medicaid reimbursement will keep pace with
inflation.

         The Company's business is generally not subject to seasonal trends.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The nature of the Company's business requires weekly payments of wages
to its personnel as they render services, while the Company receives payments
for services rendered over an extended period of time (30 to 90 days). At March
31, 1996 the Company's accounts receivable balance increased $199,226 to
$1,094,357 from $895,131 at December 31, 1995. The increase in accounts
receivable was due to increased net patient service revenue and an increase in
days sales in accounts receivable from approximately 49 to 54 days.

         At March 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $127,132.
Historically, the Company's cash requirements have been met internally from
operations. The Company currently has no outstanding bank debt nor does it have
any agreements for a line of credit.

         For the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the quarter ended March 31,
1995, the Company used cash from operating activities of $246,403 and $78,340
respectively. The change in cash used from operating activities was a result of
increased selling, general and administrative expenses and accounts receivable
associated with the additional branch locations, increased financial reporting
requirements and the overall increase in net patient service revenue.

         During the quarter ended March 31, 1996 the Company invested $56,541 in
property and equipment primarily for purchases of computers, telecommunication
equipment, and furniture and equipment associated with the relocation of one
branch and the opening of one additional branch.

Forward Looking Statements - Cautionary Factors

         1. The Company derives most of its revenues from Medicaid
reimbursements. To the extent Medicaid reimbursements are reduced, the Company's
revenues and profitability may be adversely impacted. Reductions in Medicaid
budgetary dollars are being discussed at the federal and state executive and
legislative levels, including the states of New York and New Jersey. During the
quarter ended March 31, 1996, a reduction in authorized Medicaid reimbursable
hours per case was imposed by the New York State Department of Social Services.
The results of this reduction did not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. However,
if a similar Medicaid reduction is imposed by the state of New Jersey, the
results of this reduction would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operation, as the Company currently derives a majority of its
revenues from New Jersey Medicaid reimbursements. The Company cannot predict the
magnitude of future reductions, if any, in Medicaid reimbursement rates or
reimbursable hours.

         2. The Company believes that its liquidity and capital resources are
adequate for its current level of operations. However, due to its anticipated
geographical expansion, addition of new products and services and potential
acquisitions and joint ventures of other home care businesses (See "Business
Strategy" in the Company's 1995 10-KSB), the Company expects its future capital
needs to increase. Should Arbor Home Healthcare Holdings, LLC. ("Arbor")
exercise its option in full to purchase common stock of the Company in 1996 (See
"Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" in the Company's 1995 10-KSB)
it will contribute $1.3 million in cash to the Company. The Company believes
that the proceeds from the exercise of the Arbor option will be sufficient to
meet the Company's expansion related and working capital requirements over the
next twelve months. Should Arbor not exercise its option to purchase the
Company's shares, the Company will seek alternative financing to fund its
business expansion. The Company's inability to obtain alternative financing
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business expansion plans.

                            Part II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5. Other information:

         Employees at one of the Company's branch offices are attempting to
organize a union to represent them. An initial hearing before the National Labor
Relations Board ("NLRB") on March 28, 1996 determined that a vote should be
taken by the employees of this branch to decide whether a union should represent
these employees. The vote took place on April 26, 1996 and the results were in
favor of the employees unionizing the branch. The details of the contract
between the Company and the union will be negotiated on a date that has yet to
be determined. However, the Company does not anticipate the union contract will
have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial
condition. The Company does not know at this time whether efforts will be made
to unionize its other branches, whether those efforts would be successful, and
whether if successful, there would be a material effect upon the Company's
operations or financial condition.

Item 6. Exhibits and reports on Form 8-K.

         a. Exhibits

            See accompanying index to Exhibits.

         b. The Company filed one report on Form 8-K on February 19, 1996
            regarding a change in the Company's independent accountants.

         All other items required in Part II are not applicable for the quarter
         ended March 31, 1996.
