Item 5.           Other Events.

                  On January 3, 1997,  Extended  Family  Care  Corporation  (the
"Registrant"), EFCC Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation ("Merger Sub") and
Star Multi Care Services, Inc., a New York corporation ("Star"), entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"),  pursuant to which, among
other things,  (i) Star will acquire 100% of the outstanding common stock of the
Registrant;  and (ii) the Registrant will be merged with and into Merger Sub and
thereupon the separate  existence of the Registrant  shall cease and Merger Sub,
as the Surviving Corporation, shall continue to exist (the "Merger"). Star is
engaged in providing custodial and home health care services, and staffing to
hospitals and other medical facilities throughout the New York City 
metropolitan area, Long Island, upstate New York, New Jersey, southeastern
Florida and Ohio.

                  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the holders of all of
the  outstanding   shares  of  the   Registrant's   common  stock  will  receive
consideration of $2.4 million in cash, or approximately 6.4 cents per share, and
$4.85 million in Star common stock, or  approximately  12.9 cents per share, for
total  consideration of $7.25 million, or approximately 19.3 cents per share. As
part of the Merger Agreement,  the Registrant will also be paying a special cash
dividend to its shareholders of $750,000,  or 2.3 cents per share,  prior to the
closing of the Merger.  It is  anticipated  that the Merger will be treated as a
tax-free  reorganization  for federal  income tax purposes to the extent of Star
common stock received by the Registrant's shareholders.

                  The  Merger is  expected  to be  completed  by August of 1997,
subject to certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement,  including, but
not  limited  to,  approval  by  certain  state  regulatory  boards  and  by the
shareholders of each of Star and the Registrant. In addition, either Star or the
Registrant may terminate the Merger  Agreement under certain  circumstances,  as
set forth in the Merger Agreement.

                  The  above   figures give  effect  to  a  merger  of  the
Registrant's 83% owned subsidiary,  TPC Home Care Services,  Inc., ("TPC"), into
the Registrant,  which is expected to occur, subject to shareholder and board of
director  approval  of the  Registrant  and  TPC,  prior  to the  Merger.  It is
anticipated that the minority  shareholders of TPC will receive common shares of
the Registrant in TPC's merger with the Registrant.  The  anticipated  merger of
TPC into the  Registrant  will not be  conditioned  upon the  completion  of the
Merger.
