USHO, which is traded in the over-the-counter market, announced today that it
is not aware of any basis for the recent increase in the price and trading
volume of its Common Stock. As noted in its most recent filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, for some time, the Company has not had
sufficient cash flow to operate its business without significant advances from
its lenders.

Additionally, the Company is experiencing Y2K problems resulting from the
Company's third party software vendor's failure to deliver promised and
necessary software upgrades. These Y2K problems could have a negative impact on
the Company's cash flow.

U.S. HomeCare Corporation is a provider of home health care services in New
York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania.


This press release contains forward-looking statements. All forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the
risks detailed in the Company's filings and reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
