ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         On October 13, 1995, the Registrant entered into the Fourth Amendment
and Limited Waiver to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Security
Documents, attached hereto as Exhibit A, which is incorporated herein in its
entirety by this reference.  On October 16, 1995, the Registrant announced that
it had concluded a major debt restructuring, announced that it had named Donald
J.  Amaral as is President and Chief Executive Officer, and issued the press
release attached hereto as Exhibit B, which is incorporated herein in its
entirety by this reference.

         As part of the restructuring of the terms of the Company's Senior
Credit Facility with Chemical Bank, as agent, the maturity dates were shortened
from April 6, 2000 to March 31, 1997, and the unused portion of the existing
revolving debt commitments of approximately $64.2 million were terminated.  The
warrants received by the lenders are for 2,569,342 shares of common stock of
the Company or, at the option of the lenders, 6% of the shares of Coram Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the company and the immediate parent of the
Company's operating subsidiaries, exercisable at a nominal price over five
years.  The fair value of the warrants, estimated to be $8 million, will be
accounted for as interest expense over the term of the debt.

ITEM 7.  EXHIBITS.
