NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.


Note A - Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they
do not include all 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 accruals) considered for a fair
presentation have been included.  Operating results for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 are not necessarily an indication of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1995. 
For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.

     Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income
by the average number of shares outstanding.


Note B - Investments

     During the first quarter of 1995, the Company purchased common
stock in a privately held company.  This investment does not have
a readily determinable fair value.  Accordingly, this investment is
recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value.


Note C - Management Agreement

     The Company is continuing its efforts to consummate the merger
of First Toledo Advisory Company with and into the Company. 
Through June 30, 1995, the Company has incurred $660,000 of costs
which it will expense in the third quarter, along with any
additional costs.


Note D - Contingencies

     As disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1994, the Company was contingently liable for certain
obligations amounting to approximately $20,175,000.  No significant
change in these contingencies has occurred as of June 30, 1995.




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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During the first half of 1995, the Company financed five
mortgage loans for a total of $30,468,000.  These loans included
two community hospitals and three nursing homes.  In addition, the
Company advanced approximately $18,843,000 for 14 construction
loans, most of which are for new facilities.  During the first half
of 1995, two of the construction loans were converted to permanent
financings.  The above loan activity, plus changes in working
capital loans and principal repayments, were the reasons net loans
increased approximately $46,836,000.

     The Company's working capital loans, all to related parties,
are expected to continue to slowly decline as the underlying
projects continue to improve their financial performance and
thereby pay down these loans.

     In the first quarter of 1995, the Company paid $532,000 for
common stock in a privately held company with which the Company has
several mortgage loans and operating-lease transactions.  The
investment was made as a result of warrants granted to the Company
when it provided the mortgage loan and operating-lease financing.

     Since December 31, 1994, borrowings under line of credit
arrangements increased $48,200,000 due to the investment activity
discussed above.  As of June 30, 1995, the Company had
approximately $132,400,000 in unfunded commitments and total
available funding sources of $60,900,000.  The Company believes
that funds provided from operating activities, together with funds
from loan repayments and equity and debt issuances, will be
sufficient to meet current operating requirements.

     During the first half of 1995, the Company received
approximately $2,043,000 from the sale of its shares under the
dividend reinvestment and incentive stock option plans.


Results of Operations

     Gross income for the first half of 1995 was $19,302,519 or
8.8% less than the first half of 1994.  Interest income on loans
receivable and operating lease rents increased while direct
financing lease income and gain on exercise of options declined. 
The increase in interest income on loans receivable and operating
lease rents is attributable to the growth in the loan and
operating-lease portfolios, a trend which the Company anticipates
will continue.  The decrease in direct financing lease income and
gain on exercise of options is a reflection of other long-term
trends which should also continue due to the greater market
acceptance of mortgage loans and operating leases.

     In the first half of 1994, gross income included $3,721,797 in
gains on exercise of options.  However, there were no such gains
for the comparable period in 1995.  Future gains on exercise of
options are anticipated to be modest since the Company has only six
remaining direct financing lease investments which total
approximately $11,332,000.

     Net income totalled $9,502,155 in the first half of 1995,
versus $12,784,107 for the comparable period in 1994.  The decrease
in net income was reflected in the $.82 per share earned in the
first half of 1995 versus $1.11 per share earned in the first half
of 1994.  Major contributing factors for the decrease were the
absence of gains on exercise of options in 1995 (discussed above)
and a tightening of the Company's net interest margin, as explained
below.

     During the first six months of 1995, average earnings on
assets increased 13 basis points versus the first half of 1994
excluding gains.  However, in the second quarter, average earnings
on assets declined 19 basis points versus the second quarter of
1994.  The decline in average earnings on assets was caused by
placing three loans on non-accrual status (discussed below) during
the first quarter of 1995 and the general decline in interest rates
during the last three quarters.  During the same six-month periods,
the Company experienced a 98 basis point increase in its average
cost of borrowing.  This was primarily due to new borrowings
predominantly at the prime rate which has not declined as quickly
as U.S. Treasury rates used for new investments.  However, the
Company's average cost of borrowing declined in the second quarter
of 1995 over the first quarter of 1995, a trend that is expected to
continue through 1995.  These trends resulted in a tightening of
its interest rate margin, both for the second quarter and on a
year-to-date basis.

     The Company is increasing the use of its LIBOR interest rate
pricing option, which is available on its primary line of credit. 
This interest rate pricing option has historically been less
expensive than prime interest rate.  Therefore, the greater
utilization of LIBOR should favorably affect the average cost of
debt.

     Lastly, the Company's net income was affected by the average
quarter-end debt to equity ratio of .81 to 1 in 1995 versus .63 to
1 in the first half of 1994.  The increase in debt had the effect
of increasing the Company's interest related expense.

     The Company is continuing its efforts to consummate the merger
of First Toledo Advisory Company with and into the Company. 
Through June 30, 1995, the Company has incurred $660,000 of costs
which it will expense in the third quarter, along with any
additional costs.

     In January 1995, the Company filed a lawsuit for collection of
past due interest and principal of approximately $1,994,000 related
to a nursing home in Detroit, Michigan.  In March of 1995, the
Company filed two lawsuits in Florida to collect past due interest
and principal on a mortgage loan secured by two behavioral care
facilities.  In connection with the March filing, the Company
presented for payment and received $1,125,000 on a letter of credit
securing the Florida mortgage loan.  After application of the
letter of credit proceeds, the Company's carrying value of the
Florida mortgage loan is approximately $13,468,000.  Each of these
loans was put on non-accrual status effective the beginning of the
month the respective lawsuits were filed.  Each of the debtors is
in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.  The Company is aggressively proceeding
against the borrowers; however, bankruptcy proceedings proceed
slowly.  The Company has evaluated its allowance for losses and
believes that the allowance is adequate, based on the information
presently available.


                 PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION

$8,500,000.00                                        June 3, 1994
                                                     Sylvania, Ohio


FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, HEALTH CARE REIT, INC. (the
"Maker"), unconditionally promises to pay to the order of Capital
Bank, N.A., a national banking association (the "Bank"), at 5520
Monroe Street, Sylvania, Ohio 43560, the principal sum of EIGHT
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($8,500,000.00) or
so much as may have been advanced and is outstanding from time to
time plus interest at the Prime rate in effect from time to time at
Bank.

          All unpaid principal and interest shall be payable upon
demand of Bank.

          Until Bank demands payment, the interest owing on the
unpaid principal shall be paid quarterly commencing August 31,
1994.

          All payments shall be credited first to interest accrued
but unpaid and then to the payment and reduction of principal. 
Late payments will be charged a fee of 10% of the payment amount.

          Interest shall be calculated by means of the 365/360 day
method.

          Maker shall make all payments on this Note at the
principal offices of Bank or at such other place as the holder
hereof may designate.

         Maker may prepay all or part of the this Note at any time
without penalty.

          This Note is issued under and entitled to the benefits of
the provisions of a Line of Credit Agreement of even date herewith,
incorporated hereunder by reference.

          In the event the Maker fails to make any payment when due
or upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in the
Line of Credit Agreement of even date herewith, Bank at its
election may declare any and all obligations or liabilities of
Maker to Bank immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or notice upon default and may proceed against any
and all security and may enforce any and all of its remedies at law
or equity.  In such event, the entire principal balance and accrued
interest then owing shall bear interest at a rate which is the
greater of sixteen percent (16%) or four percent (4%) above the
prime interest rate in effect from time to time at Bank until fully
paid, provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of
interest paid hereunder exceed the maximum rate of interest
permitted by law.  Maker agrees to pay all costs of collection
hereof, including reasonable attorney's fees.

          This Note shall be construed under the laws of the State
of Ohio.

          Bank's acceptance of one or more late or partial payments
shall not be a course of dealing upon which the Maker may rely on
future occasions or a waiver of Bank's right to prompt full payment
when due under this Note.  Bank's forbearance from exercising any
right or remedy under this Note shall not be a waiver of such
rights and remedies.  Bank's forbearance from exercising any right
or remedy under this Note on any one or more occasions shall not be
a course of dealing or waiver on which the Maker may rely on any

                  REVOLVING COGNOVIT DEMAND NOTE


$20,000,000.00              Toledo, Ohio               May 31, 1995


ON DEMAND, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HEALTH CARE REIT, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Borrower"), having an address of One SeaGate,
Toledo, Ohio, 43604, hereby promises to pay to the order of THE
FIFTH THIRD BANK OF NORTHWESTERN OHIO, N.A., a national banking
association ("Lender"), having an address of 606 Madison Avenue,
Toledo, Ohio, 43604, the sum of Twenty Million Dollars
($20,000,000.00) or such lesser principal amount as may be advanced
by Lender and outstanding hereunder from time to time, plus
interest from this date until fully paid.

     1.   Interest.  Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding
principal balance of this Revolving Cognovit Demand Note (the
"Note") at the variable rate per annum equal to the rate of
interest announced by the Lender as its prime rate of interest. 
The prime rate is not necessarily the lowest rate offered by the
Lender and the interest rate will change as and when Lender's prime
rate changes.  Lender's decision as to the prime rate shall be
final and binding.  Borrower shall pay interest on any amounts not
paid when due, and on any judgment on this Note, at the default
rate of interest (the "Default Rate") equal to six percent (6%) per
annum plus the rate of interest otherwise payable on this Note. 
Interest shall be calculated based on the actual number of days
elapsed over a 360-day year (365/360 method).

     2.   Payments.  Commencing June 30, 1995, and on the last day
of each consecutive month thereafter, Borrower shall make monthly
payments of interest until the earlier of (i) demand by Lender, or
(ii) May 31, 1996, at which time all outstanding principal and
accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable.  Each payment
shall be made in U.S. Dollars, in immediately available funds
without set off or counterclaim.

     3.   Renewal.  Provided that no event of default (as that term
is defined in Section 11 infra.) has occurred, in the event that
Lender determines that this Note will not be renewed at maturity,
Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days'
prior written notice of non-renewal.  Nothing in this Section 3
obligates Lender to renew or extend this Note or affects Lender's
right to demand full payment of this Note at any time.

     4.   Place of Payment.  Borrower shall make all payments on
this Note at Lender's office at 606 Madison Avenue, Toledo, Ohio,
43604 or at such other place as the Lender may designate.

     5.   Purpose.  Borrower shall use the proceeds of this Note
for working capital purposes in the ordinary course of business.

     6.   Prepayment.  Borrower may prepay this note in whole or in
part without penalty, provided Borrower provides Lender with ten
(10) days' prior written notice thereof.  No partial prepayment
will postpone the due date or affect the amount of the next
scheduled payment due hereunder.

     7.   Late Charge.  Borrower acknowledges that default in any
payment due under this Note will result in loss and additional
expense to Lender in handling such delinquent payments and meeting
its other financial obligations, and to the extent such loss and
additional expense is extremely difficult and impractical to
ascertain, Borrower agrees that if any payment hereunder is not
paid within ten (10) days of the due date, Borrower shall pay to
Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of
the overdue payment.

     8.   Application of Payments.  Unless Lender elects otherwise,
all payments and other amounts received by Lender shall be credited
first to any charges, costs, expenses and fees due hereunder or
payable by Borrower in connection herewith; second, to interest on
the foregoing amounts at the Default Rate from the due date or date
of payment by Lender, as the case may be; third, to accrued but
unpaid interest on this Note; fourth, to the principal amount
outstanding; and the balance, if any, to Borrower.

     9.   Covenants, Etc. Run to Lender.  All representations,
warranties undertakings and covenants, both financial and non-
financial, now or hereafter made, given, accepted or agreed upon by
Borrower to or in favor of any lender (including, without
limitation, those representations, warranties, undertakings and
covenants set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
between Borrower and Seven Banks and National City Bank, As Agent,
dated September 8, 1994, together with any extensions, renewals,
amendments, restatements, modifications or refinancings thereof and
further including, without limitation, those representations,

amendments, restatements, modifications or refinancings thereof),

          Toledo, Ohio, May 9, 1995 (NYSE/HCN)....Health Care REIT,
Inc. (the "Company") announced today that its Board of Directors,
acting on a recommendation of a special committee thereof, had
approved revised terms of the acquisition of First Toledo Advisory
Company ("FTAC").   FTAC currently serves as the manager of the
Company and is owned by Bruce G. Thompson, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, and Frederic D. Wolfe, President of the Company.

          On February 6, 1995, the Company announced that its Board
of Directors approved in principle the acquisition of FTAC.  Since
that time, the Company and FTAC have revised the terms of the
agreement in principle to eliminate the previously proposed stock
purchase and loan arrangement and to decrease the overall number of
shares issuable in connection with the transaction from 383,536
shares to 282,407 shares.  Such shares would be issued in
consideration of the acquisition.  Under the revised agreement, the
Company intends to account for the acquisition under the pooling of
interests method of accounting.

          As previously announced, each of Messrs. Thompson and
Wolfe would enter into five-year service agreements whereby Mr.
Thompson would continue for two years as Chief Executive Officer
for the Company and as a consultant for three years thereafter, and
Mr. Wolfe would serve as a consultant for five years.  Each of
Messrs. Thompson and Wolfe would also enter into five-year non-
compete agreements with the Company.

          The transactions described above are subject to
definitive agreements, stockholder approval and other customary
conditions.  The transactions are also subject to the accounting of
the acquisition under the pooling of interests method.  It is
anticipated that the revised transaction will now occur in the
third quarter of 1995.

          Health Care REIT, Inc. is a real estate investment trust
which invests in health care facilities, primarily nursing homes. 
The Company also invests in assisted living and retirement
facilities, behavioral care facilities, specialty care hospitals,
and primary care facilities.
