ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On January 14, 1997, Transworld Home HealthCare, Inc. (the "Company")
         consummated the previously announced Stock Purchase Agreement (the
         "Purchase Agreement") with Health Management, Inc. ("HMI"). Pursuant to
         the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 8,964,292 newly issued HMI
         common shares, representing approximately 49% of HMI's outstanding
         common stock for a purchase price of $8,964,292 less $4,649,285
         previously advanced by the Company to HMI for working capital purposes.
         The purchase price for the acquisition of the HMI stock was paid using
         funds borrowed under the Company's senior secured revolving credit
         facility. The Company has also agreed to extend until January 31, 1997
         the forbearance of remedies under HMI's senior secured credit facility,
         which the Company acquired on November 13, 1996.

         The Company and HMI also amended the previously announced Merger
         Agreement in order to decrease from $2.00 to $1.50 the amount per share
         that each holder of common stock of HMI (other than the Company and its
         subsidiaries) will receive if the merger of IMH Acquisition Corp. (a
         subsidiary of the Company) and HMI is consummated. Consummation of the
         Merger Agreement is subject to various conditions, including receipt of
         financing by the Company sufficient to complete the merger, approval of
         the Company's lenders under its senior secured revolving credit
         facility and approval by HMI's stockholders.

ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

         On January 14, 1997, the Company announced that the Company and 
         Hyperion Partners II L.P. ("HPII") had entered into a Stock Purchase
         Agreement pursuant to which HPII will purchase at closing 898,877
         shares of the Company's common stock at a purchase price of $11.125
         per share. Closing of the transaction is subject, among other
         things, to receipt of applicable governmental approvals and certain
         approvals from the Company's lenders under its senior secured
         revolving credit facility.

         The Company also announced on January 15, 1997 that Timothy M. Aitken
         had joined the Company as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr.
         Aitken was most recently President and Vice Chairman of Apria
         Healthcare Group, Inc. and prior thereto, Chairman, President and Chief
         Executive Officer of Abbey HealthCare Group Inc.
