               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

         In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements of Star Multi Care Services, Inc. and its
subsidiaries (the "Company") contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly
the Company's financial position as of August 31, 1997 and the results of its
operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended August 31, 1997 and
1996.

         The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1
to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997, which is incorporated
herein by reference. Specific reference is made to this report for the notes to
consolidated financial statements included therein.

         The results of operations for the three month period ended August 31,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.

Note 1 - Net Income (Loss) Per Share

         Net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of common stock and common stock
equivalents outstanding during each period. Common stock equivalents represent
the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of certain outstanding stock options
and warrants.

Note 2:  Merger

         On August 23, 1996, the Company completed a merger to acquire Amserv
Healthcare Inc. ("Amserv"), a health care service company which provides home
care services in New Jersey and Ohio. In accordance with the Merger Agreement,
each share of common stock of Amserv outstanding immediately prior to
consummation of the merger was converted into .4090 shares of common stock of
the Company. The total shares issued amounted to 1,410,731. The Company also
assumed all outstanding options and other rights to acquire Amserv stock. All
costs related to the merger amounted to $2,808,223. Unpaid amounts as of August
31, 1997 have been included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and accrued
payroll and related expenses.

Note 3: Subsequent Event

         On September 9, 1997, the Company and Extended Family Care Corporation
("EFCC") consummated a merger (the "Merger") whereby the Company acquired
control of EFCC pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January
3, 1997, as amended on April 6, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), among the
Company, EFCC Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), and EFCC. Under the Merger Agreement,
EFCC was merged with and into Merger Sub, whereupon the separate existence of

EFCC ceased and all the assets of EFCC became the assets of Merger Sub.
Consummation of the Merger followed approval by the shareholders of the Company
and EFCC, which was obtained at separate shareholders meetings of the two
companies held on September 9, 1997. The Merger was structured as a reverse
triangular merger intended to qualify as a tax free reorganization.

         In connection with the Merger, each outstanding share of EFCC's Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share ("EFCC Common Stock"), was converted into the
right to receive .025907006 shares (the "Exchange Ratio") of the Company's
Common Stock, par value $.001 per share ("Star Common Stock") and cash in the
amount of $.063826051. Accordingly, the Company registered with the Securities
and Exchange

Commission 1,077,778 shares of Star Common Stock which are to be issued to the
former holders of EFCC Common Stock.

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

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
attached consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and with the
Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year
ended May 31, 1997.

Results of Operations.

         Quarter ended August 31, 1997 compared to quarter ended August 31,
1996.

         Total net revenues increased $438,765 or 3% to $13,001,925 for the
quarter ended August 31, 1997 over net revenues of $12,563,160 for the quarter
ended August 31, 1996. The increase in revenue for the quarter ended August 31,
1997 from the quarter ended August 31, 1996 is primarily attributable to growth
in the New Jersey and Florida branches of the Company.

         The Company's decided shift towards Home Care (personal care, such as
assistance with the activities of daily living (e.g., eating, walking and
grooming), and skilled nursing services such as wound care and assistance with
medications, injections and patient education) mirrors a changing social and
economic attitude toward the de-institutionalization of patients. Due to the
long hospital stays of some terminally ill patients and the greater costs
associated with institutional treatment plans, the Company believes that the
industry (i.e. hospital, insurance companies and home care agencies) trend is to
find ways to care for patients in the home. The Company continues to devote its
resources toward the growth in Home Care and believes this upward trend will
continue in the future.

         Gross profit margins were approximately 35% for the quarters ended
August 31, 1997 and 1996.


         Selling, general and administrative costs as a percentage of net
revenues were 28% for the quarters ended August 31, 1997 and 1996.

         Income from operations increased $45,778 or 7% to $731,483 for the
quarter ended August 31, 1997 compared with $685,705 for the quarter ended
August 31, 1996. The increase in income from operations for the quarter ended
August 31, 1997 from the quarter ended August 31, 1996 is attributable to the
increase in revenues.

         Net income (loss) were $411,381 for the quarter ended August 31, 1997
compared to ($1,278,681) for the quarter ended August 31, 1996. The Company
incurred a one-time charge of $2,808,223 for acquisition costs, legal fees and
restructuring expenses associated with the merger with Amserv, which contributed
to a net loss for the quarter ended August 31, 1996.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of August 31, 1997 cash and cash equivalents were $2,340,205 as
compared with $139,400 at May 31, 1997. The net increase of $2,200,805 resulted
primarily from proceeds from the revolving credit line in anticipation of the
EFCC acquisition.

         The nature of the Company's business requires weekly payments to its
personnel at the time they render services, while it receives payment for
services rendered over an extended period of time (60 to 180 days or longer),
particularly when the payor is an insurance company, medical institution or
governmental

                                     Page 7

unit. Accounts receivable represent a substantial portion of current and total
assets at August 31, 1997 and May 31, 1997.

         The Company currently has available a line of credit with a bank which
allows for maximum borrowings of $8,000,000. This line of credit expires on
October 31, 1998 and is subject to renewal. However, as the Company's business
expands, additional financing may be required. Short-term borrowings at August
31, 1997 were $4,462,000 as compared to $2,622,000 at May 31, 1997.

         As a result, the Company feels that its current financial condition is
sufficient in order to permit the Company to meet its financial requirements for
at least the ensuing twelve months.

         The Company intends to meet its long-term liquidity needs through
available cash, cash flow and, if necessary, the Company's bank line of credit.
To the extent that such sources are inadequate, the Company will be required to
seek additional financing. In such event, there can be no assurance that
additional financing will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms.

         On September 9, 1997, the Company acquired Extended Family Care

Corporation ("EFCC"), a health care service company which provides Home Care
services in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. The Company paid $2,400,000
in cash and $4,850,000 in stock for EFCC. [See Note 3 of the Financial
Statements]

         Other than the matters described above, the Company does not anticipate
any extraordinary material commitments for capital expenditures for the
Company's current fiscal year. The Company believes that cash generated from
operations, together with borrowings available under its existing line of
credit, will be sufficient to meet its short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

         The Company is continually exploring possible acquisitions of
compatible companies in the health care business. If any such acquisition were
to be made with available cash, the Company's long-term liquidity would depend
to a greater extent on cash flow and the line of credit.
