                 ATTACHMENT A TO AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D


        The Reporting Person reported his ownership of shares of Common Stock,
$.10 par value ("Common Stock") of Geriatric & Medical Companies, Inc. (the
"Company") in an initial filing of this Schedule 13D on August 15, 1996. In this
regard, Items 4 and 5 are hereby amended as follows. All other Items remain
unchanged from the initial filing of this Schedule 13D.

ITEM 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

        The Reporting Person acquired the Common Stock of the Company for
general investment purposes. The Reporting person has no plans or proposals
which relate to ITEMS 4(c) through (j). The Reporting Person hereby reports the
consummation of certain transactions which relate to ITEMS 4(a) and 4(b), as
described further below.

        On October 11, 1996, Company consummated the transactions (the "Merger")
contemplated under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement")
dated July 11, 1996, by and among the Company, Genesis Health Ventures, Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation ("Acquiror"), and G Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("Newco"). As a result of the consummation of the Merger, the
Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror.

        In connection with the Merger, shares owned directly or indirectly by
the Reporting Person were converted into the right to receive Five Dollars
Seventy-Five Cents ($5.75) in cash.

ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

        As a result of the transactions described in Item 4 above, the Reporting
Person hereby reports beneficial ownership of zero (0) shares of Common Stock.
Prior to consummation of the Merger, the Reporting Person had reported
beneficial ownership of 3,748,178 shares of Common Stock, representing 24.29% of
the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. The foregoing percentage assumes
that the Company had 15,249,600 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

        As a result of the consummation of the Merger, the Reporting Person has
no power to vote or direct the vote, or to dispose or direct the disposition, of
any shares of Common Stock of the Company.

        Other than described herein, the Reporting Person has effected no
transactions in shares of Common Stock of the Company

                                       (4)
