Item 2.	ASSET DISPOSITION

On November 12, 1999 sold its product operations  (consisting of infusion
therapy and respiratory and medical equipment businesses) to Lincare
Holdings, Inc. in an asset sale for $14.5 million as part of a formal plan of
separation.  The Company is pursuing available strategic alternatives relative
to its visiting nurse operations in order to complete this plan. Proceeds
from the sale are being used to repay obligations outstanding under the
Company's bank line of credit.  As of November 19, 1999 approximately $2.5
million remained outstanding on the line of credit.  The Company has retained
certain assets and liabilities associated with the product operations, the
liquidation of which is expected to generate additional proceeds of
approximately $2 million.  The Company intends to use the borrowing capacity
available to it as a result of these actions to pursue further development
of its adult day care business.

As a result of the operational separations, the Company has recorded a one-time
net of tax loss of approximately $5 million or ($1.60) in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999.  This charge reduces the book value of the operations to
their expected net realizable value and includes the estimated future operating
results of the visiting nurse operations prior to separation.  These changes
have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the financial statements
for interim periods ended September 30, 1999.

	CARETENDERS HEALTH CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated pro-forma financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. Accordingly, the reader of this Form 8-K is referred to the
Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 and Form 10-K
for the year ended March 31, 1999 for further information. In the opinion of
management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited pro-forma financial
statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the
results of operations. The accompanying pro-forma financial statements presents
the Company's results of operations for the six-months ended September 30, 1999,
1998 and 1997 and its financial condition as of September 30, 1999, as if the
plan (more fully described in Note 2 below) had been adopted at the beginning of
each period or as of September 30, 1999 in the case of the pro-forma balance
sheet.

2.	DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On November 12, 1999 sold its product operations (consisting of infusion therapy
and respiratory and medical equipment businesses) to Lincare Holdings, Inc. in
an asset sale for $14.5 million as part of a formal plan of separation.  The
Company is pursuing available strategic alternatives relative to its visiting
nurse operations in order to complete this plan. Proceeds from the sale are
being used to repay obligations outstanding under the Company's bank line of
credit. As a result of the operational separations, the Company has recorded
a one-time net of tax loss of approximately $5 million or ($1.60) in the
quarter ended September 30, 1999.  This charge reduced the book value of the
operations to their expected net realizable value and includes the estimated
future operating results of the visiting nurse operations prior to
separation.  These changes have been accounted for as discontinued operations
in the Company's financial statements as of September 30, 1999 included in
Form 10-Q for the quarter then ended and three years ended March 31, 1999.
Accordingly, pro-forma adjustments to the statement of operations for the six
months then ended are limited to reflecting the reduction in interest expense
resulting from the pay down of debt with the proceeds of the sale of the product
operations.
