Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  The Company

    The Company's operations consist primarily of nursing home services
    and infusion therapy and other medical services.  Nursing home
    services include the ownership, leasing, operation and management
    of nursing homes.  Infusion therapy and other medical services
    include enteral and other medical services, primarily for patients
    in nursing homes, and intravenous and other infusion therapies for
    patients at home and in nursing homes.

    The Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties as a
    result of changes that could occur in the healthcare industry,
    including Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates.


2.  Basis of Presentation

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
    Continental Health Affiliates, Inc. ("Continental") and its
    subsidiaries (the "Company").  All significant intercompany
    accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    Continental owns 59% of the common stock of Infu-Tech, Inc. ("Infu-
    Tech"); the other 41% is publicly traded.  The minority interest in
    the consolidated financial statements represents the minority
    stockholders' proportionate share of equity in Infu-Tech.

    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
    been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the
    instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 
    Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
    footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
    complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
    adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accrual adjustments,
    considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In
    addition, during the six months, management reviewed various
    estimates of certain liabilities and the adequacy of bad debt
    provisions and recorded an aggregate of $416,408 as credits. 
    Significant items are discussed in the management discussion and
    analysis section.

    Operating results for the six month period ended December 31, 1996,
    are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
    for year end June 30, 1997.

    These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction
    with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto
    included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
    ended June 30, 1996.

3.  Cash and Cash Equivalents

    Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1996
    includes $1,098,000 and $691,000 respectively, held by Infu-Tech. 
    In connections with Infu-Tech's initial public offering, a
    management and non-competition agreement between Continental and
    its 59% owned subsidiary, Infu-Tech, expiring September 30, 1997,
    prohibits Infu-Tech from lending money to (or borrowing money from)
    Continental and its other subsidiaries subsequent to December 31,
    1992.

    The Company classifies all highly liquid investments with
    maturities of three months or less when purchased as cash
    equivalents.

4.  Exchange Offer

    On October 4, 1996, the Company completed an exchange offer to
    holders of its 14 % Subordinated Debentures that were due on
    September 1, 1996.  The Company offered for each $1,000 principal
    amount of subordinated debentures a share of a new 11% convertible
    Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $1,000. Of the
    total of $1.2 million subordinated debentures outstanding, $474,000
    principal elected to exchange into Series A 11% Convertible
    Preferred Stock.

    The new Preferred Stock will be convertible for three years into
    Continental Health common stock which, at the time of conversion,
    has a market value totalling 110% of the liquidation preference of
    the Preferred Stock.  After the three years, the Preferred Stock
    will be convertible into common stock which has a market value
    totalling 100% of the liquidation preference of the Preferred
    Stock.  Holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to
    dividends totalling $110 per share per year, equal to 11% of the
    liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock.  After three years,
    Continental Health will have the right either to (1) redeem the
    Preferred Stock for $1,000 per share or (2) convert the outstanding
    Preferred Stock into Continental Health common stock which has a
    market value at the time of conversion equal to 100% of the
    liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock.

    During the quarter, $440,000 face amount of the Series A
    Convertible Preferred Stock converted into common stock of the
    Company, leaving $34,000 face amount of the Series A Convertible
    Preferred Stock outstanding at December 31, 1996.

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

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 (Unaudited)

Total revenues were $193,000, or 1% lower for 1996 compared to 1995. 
Revenues were negatively impacted by $913,000 attributable to the
continuing low census at the West Palm Beach, Florida nursing home. 
Revenues in the prior period included $600,000 attributable to the
Hilltop facility sold in May 1996.

Infusion therapy and other medical services revenues increased by
$389,000, or 6%, from $6,335,000 in 1995 to $6,724,000 in 1996,
partially due to a $164,000, or 11%, increase in contract service
division revenues.  These revenues are comprised of enteral nutrition
therapy and other products provided to patients in long-term care
facilities.  Home infusion division revenues increased by $147,000 or
3% partially attributed to a 27% increase in the number of patients
serviced.  These patients experienced shorter terms of therapy as well
as discounted pricing negotiated with managed care companies.

Due to the passage of time, it appeared that claims, against which the
Company had established reserves, would not be made.  Accordingly,
during the quarter, the Company extinguished the reserves, resulting
in $66,000 in revenue in the quarter.

Personnel costs increased by $316,000, or 4% partially attributable to
expansion of the home infusion sales force and to support the 27%
increase in the number of home infusion patients serviced.  Excluding
the Heritage facility that was acquired with the October 1995 Nomura
financing, personnel costs decreased by $284,000.  In addition, 24% of
the total increase is attributable to executive incentive
compensation, paid with respect to the prior year.

Costs of medical and nutritional products sold to patients and other
customers decreased by $251,000, or 8%, from $3,222,000 in 1995 to
$2,971,000 in 1996.  As a percentage of infusion therapy and other
medical services revenues, medical and nutritional product costs was
44% in 1996 and 51% in 1995.  The improvement is partially
attributable to Infu-Tech s  participating in group purchasing
programs that make bulk purchases more economical.

Health care and lodging expenses, which are incurred in connection
with nursing home services, decreased by $484,000 or 17% partially due
to a reduction in rent expense as a result of the acquisition of
nursing homes which were previously leased.  As a corollary, interest
expense has increased (see below).

Selling, general and administrative costs increased by $665,000 or 49%
primarily due to increased insurance and other related costs
attributable to the acquisition of four facilities on October 31,
1995, increases in legal fees, the engagement of an investor relations
firm and distribution costs incurred to support the 27% increase in
home infusion patients serviced.

The provision for uncollectible accounts was 2% of revenues in 1996
and 3% in 1995.

CONTINENTAL HEALTH AFFILIATE, INC.

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

As a result of the acquisition of four facilities in the October 31,
1995 refinancing, depreciation and amortization expenses increased by
$233,000 and interest and other financing costs increased by $483,000.

Other income (expense) net, of $74,000 in 1996 consisted of
amortization of deferred income of $32,000 and an unrealized foreign
currency translation gain of $3,000 offset by $115,000 of legal
settlements.  Other income (expense) net, of $126,000 in 1995
consisted of amortization of deferred income of $77,000 and gains on
bonds repurchased of $50,000 offset by an unrealized translation loss.

Minority interest in profit of subsidiary of $118,000 in 1996 and
$132,000 in 1995 represents the portion of the net income of Infu-Tech
allocable to minority stockholders and reflects the exhaustion of net
operating loss carryforwards which were available in 1995.

The provision for income taxes of $199,000 in 1996 reflects a full tax
charge for Infu-Tech, a 59% owned subsidiary which files its own
federal tax return.

The preferred stock dividend does not include the mandatorily
redeemable preferred stock issued as part of the October 31, 1995
refinancing which is accounted for under interest and financing costs.

The net loss applicable to common shareholders in 1996 was $14,000 or
0 cents per share compared to net income available to common
shareholders in 1995 of $167,000 or 2 cents per share.  

Six Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 (Unaudited)

Total revenues were $2,933,000, or 9% higher in the 1996 period
compared to the same period of the prior year.  This is due to an
improved patient mix yielding higher reimbursement while being
partially offset by lower occupancy at the West Palm Beach facility.

Infusion therapy and other medical services revenues increased by
$868,000, or 7%, from $12,637,000 in 1995 to $13,505,000 in 1996,
primarily due to a $315,000, or 3%, increase in home infusion division
revenues.  This increase is primarily attributed to a 19% increase in
the number of patients serviced.  These patients experienced shorter
terms of therapy as well as discounted pricing negotiated with managed
care companies.

Personnel costs increased by $1,651,000.  Excluding the Heritage
facility that was acquired with the October 1995 Nomura financing,
personnel costs decreased by $386,000.  Primarily attributed to normal
cost of living increases, use of Company personnel to perform some
services previously performed by outside consultants, higher Infu-Tech
nursing costs incurred to support the 19% increase in home infusion
patients serviced, increased Infu-Tech pharmacy payroll, as well as an
increasing geographical coverage through Infu-Tech sales force
expansion and executive incentive compensation, paid with respect to
the prior year.

Costs of medical and nutritional products sold to patients and other
customers decreased by $346,000, or 5%, from $6,440,000 in 1995 to
$6,094,000 in 1996.  As a percentage of infusion therapy and other
medical services revenues, medical and nutritional product costs
decreased from 51% in 1995 to 45% in 1996.  The improvement in the
nutritional product costs as a percentage of sales is partially
attributable to Infu-Tech s participation in group purchasing
programs.

CONTINENTAL HEALTH AFFILIATES, INC.

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

Health care and lodging expenses, which are incurred in connection
with nursing home services, decreased by $656,000 or 12%.  This was
primarily because the Company began performing services which
previously had been performed by outside consultants.  This moved the
cost from health care and lodging to personnel costs.

Selling, general and administrative costs increased by $818,000, or
29%, primarily as a result of increased insurance and other related
costs attributable to the acquisition of four facilities on October
31, 1995, increases in legal fees, the engagement of an investor
relations firm and distribution costs incurred to support the 19%
increase in home infusion patients serviced.

The provision for uncollectible accounts was 2% of revenues in 1996
and 3% of revenues in 1995.

Due to an October 31, 1995 refinancing for the acquisition of four
facilities, depreciation and amortization expenses increased by
$548,000 and interest and other financing costs increased by
$1,961,000.  

Other income, net of $65,000 in 1996 primarily consisted of $63,000 of
amortization of a $628,000 payment received by the Company in 1992 as
consideration for Infu-Tech releasing the buyer of the Company s
former Home Nursing Division from an agreement not to sell infusion
therapy services and the Company s agreeing not to provide nursing
services in California, Arizona or Tennessee for a period of five
years, and an unrealized foreign currency translation gain of $80,000
offset by $115,000 of legal settlements.  Other income, net of
$440,000 in 1995 consisted of amortization of deferred income of
$367,000, $50,000 gains on bonds repurchased and an unrealized foreign
currency translation gain of $23,000.

Minority interest in earnings of subsidiary of $231,000 in 1996 and
$219,000 in 1995  represents the portion of the net income of Infu-
Tech allocable to minority stockholders and reflects the exhaustion of
net operating loss carryforwards which were available in 1995.

The provision for income taxes of $388,000 in 1996 reflects a full tax
charge for Infu-Tech, a 59% owned subsidiary which files its own
federal tax return.

The preferred stock dividend does not include the mandatorily
redeemable preferred stock issued as part of the October 31, 1995
refinancing which is accounted for under interest and financing costs.

The net income available to common shareholders in 1996 was $3,000 or
0 cents per share compared to a net income available to common
shareholders in 1995 of $341,000 or $.04 per share.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 1996, the Company had stockholders' equity of
$2,739,000 and total liabilities of $71,406,000.  At December 31, 1996
debt amounted to $56,126,000, the majority of which arose from the
acquisition of four facilities under the Nomura refinancing.  Other
debt included SFr 699,005 (approximately $522,000) principal amount of
6% Swiss franc denominated convertible bonds which remain unpaid
although they matured on June 27, 1995 (the "Bonds"); SFr 619,500
(approximately $462,000) principal amount of 8% Swiss franc
denominated bonds due June 27, 1998; $207,000 principal amount of a
secured loan ("Secured Loan") due November 1997; $1,213,000 principal
amount of 8% notes due 1999; and $3,400,000 principal amount of 6%
notes due 2003.

CONTINENTAL HEALTH AFFILIATES, INC.

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

On October 4, 1996, an Exchange Offer made by the Company to exchange
shares of a new 11% Convertible Preferred Stock for all its remaining
14 % Subordinated Debentures due September 1, 1996 expired.  $474,000
face amount of debentures were exchanged and $474,000 was returned to
the Company from the escrow account which had been established with
the Trustee to repay the holders.  As of December 31, 1996 $440,000
face amount had been converted into common shares of the Company,
leaving $34,000 face amount of the Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock outstanding.

On October 31, 1995, the Company made a 15 year borrowing of $41.0
million secured by mortgages on four of the Company's nursing homes
and a five year borrowing of $1.5 million secured by 8 acres of land
in West Orange, New Jersey.  In addition, four subsidiaries of the
Company sold preferred stock for a total of $3.5 million.  The $46.0
million borrowing allowed the Company to purchase 4 nursing homes
(three of which previously had been operated by the Company under
leases and the fourth of which the Company had sold in 1990 and
managed under a management contract since then) and to repay $301,000,
and extend the balance of a $601,000 secured note which would have
matured in December 1995.  At the same time, the Company converted
$1,476,000 of trade payables into a three year note.  In September
1996 the Company converted an additional $904,467 of trade payables
into one to three year notes.

The Company sold the 8 acres of land which secured a five year $1.5
million loan and utilized the proceeds to pay-down that borrowing,
leaving a balance of $454,000.  The Company has the right to prepay
that loan in full by December 31, 1997 and take a $150,000 credit,
which it intends to do.

When the Bonds matured on June 27, 1995, SFr 2,900,000 (approximately
$2,525,000) principal amount, together with accrued interest of SFr
174,000 (approximately $152,000), was outstanding.  Between June 30,
1995 and June 30, 1996, the Company acquired SFr 2,164,000 principal
amount of Bonds, including accrued interest on those Bonds, for a
total of SFr 1,122,375 and $315,000 plus a SFr 619,500 note maturing
in June 1998.  As of December 31, 1996, the Company had acquired an
additional SFr 85,000 principal amount of bonds (with interest) for
$78,000.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents balance decreased from
$2,900,000 at June 30, 1996 to $1,819,000 at December 31, 1996. 
Included in the December 31, 1996 balance is $1,098,000 held by Infu-
Tech.  In connections with the initial public offering of Infu-Tech
common stock, the Company entered into a management and non-
competition agreement with Infu-Tech, expiring September 30, 1997,
which prohibits Infu-Tech from lending money to (or borrowing money
from) the remainder of the Company.

The Company in total provided $70,000 of cash from operating
activities primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable of
$2,969,000 and an increase in prepaid and other current assets of
$587,000, offset by an increase in accounts payable of $823,000,
increase in other current liabilities of $553,000 and net income of
$98,000.  Of the $2,969,000 increase in accounts receivable,
$1,129,000 is attributable to Infu-Tech.  At December 31, 1996, the
balance in net accounts receivable for Infu-Tech was 10% higher than
the balance at June 30, 1996.  Infu-Tech's net accounts receivable has
increased from 84 days sales at June 30, 1996 to 88 days sales at
December 31, 1996, primarily as a result of continued slow payments
from Medicare and managed care companies.  Medicare payments have been
delayed due to changes in reimbursement policies, while managed care
companies have experienced delays in processing payments due to a
higher volume of claims.  As a result, Infu-Tech has experienced
increased delays in having its claims processed as well as an increase
in the number of initial claims rejected.  The increase in accounts
receivable attributable to the nursing home division was due to an

<PAGE>

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

accrual of retroactive Medicare payments resulting from anticipated
rate adjustments.  The Company (excluding Infu-Tech) used $401,000 of
cash in operating activities.

The Company has no arrangements under which it can make borrowings. 
At December 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of
$3,990,000.  Excluding Infu-Tech, which had working capital of $5.2
million, the Company had a working capital deficit of $9,177,000. 
Further, at December 31, 1996, Infu-Tech's cash and cash equivalents
of $1,098,000 were $407,000 more than the balance of $691,000 at June
30, 1996 and its accounts payable of $3,374,000 were $595,000 higher
than the $2,779,000 at June 30, 1996.

During the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Company repaid
$1,560,000 of long-term borrowings and paid preferred dividends of
$48,000.

At December 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $7.8 million of
debt due in 1997 including $6.2 million of mortgage debt which it
intends to prepay or refinance in 1997.  In December 1996, the Company 
began to make mandatory principal redemption payments of its
subsidiaries' Preferred Stock of $73,000 per month.

The Company does not have any material commitments for capital
expenditures.

While the Company is experiencing tight cash flow constraints, it is
focused on generating sufficient funds through operating cash flow or
the realization of assets into cash to meet ongoing obligations.
