Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D

Reference is made to the statement of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D filed on February 3, 2003 (this “Statement”) on behalf of John E. Reed, Stewart B. Reed, and James A. Burk. All capitalized terms used without definition herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Statement. This Amendment No. 1 to the Statement (the “Amendment”) amends the Statement as follows.

Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be holding their shares of Common Stock with the purpose (together with the other Reporting Persons) of acting in concert in pursuit of the Transaction (as defined in Item 4 below); accordingly, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act (the “Exchange Act”). The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim that they have agreed to act as a group other than as described in this Statement. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Statement.

(f) Each of the Reporting Persons is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The consideration for the proposed Transaction will be contributed by each of John Reed, Stewart Reed, and James Burk to Borden from personal funds, funds borrowed from various financing sources, or a combination of such personal and borrowed funds. The maximum amount of the consideration for the proposed Transaction is $450,000, less an amount equal to the expenses incurred by the Reporting Persons in connection with the Transaction. No Reporting Person currently has any definitive arrangements in place with respect to borrowed funds to finance future purchases of Common Stock.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On January 29, 2003, the Reporting Persons submitted to the Issuer a written proposal, dated January 28, 2003, to invest up to an aggregate of $450,000 (less transaction expenses) in shares of Common Stock, at price of $0.55 per share (the “January 28 Letter”). The January 28 Letter provides that the acquisition of such shares would be accomplished through the merger of Borden into the Issuer, pursuant to which: (1) shares of Common Stock owned by holders of fewer than 4,000 shares (“Small Stockholders”) would be converted into the right to receive cash in the amount of $0.55 per share, without interest (the “Per Share Price”), and (2) the outstanding shares of Borden’s capital stock would, in the aggregate, be converted into the right to receive that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of the total amount of cash invested in Borden by the Reporting Persons divided by the Per Share Price (the “Transaction”).

The January 28 Letter also provides that: (1) the proceeds from the investment by the Reporting Persons would be utilized by the Issuer for purposes of cashing out the Small Stockholders’ shares of Common Stock pursuant to the merger; (2) the purpose of the Transaction is to reduce the number of holders of the Issuer’s Common Stock, thereby allowing the Issuer to deregister the Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to terminate its reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (3) the proposed Transaction is subject to the execution of a definitive merger agreement with the Issuer containing the terms and conditions set forth above and such other mutually agreeable terms and conditions as are customary in agreements of this sort, including but not limited to customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions; and (4) the proposed Transaction is also subject to, among other things, (a) the approval of the Transaction by a special committee of independent directors, the board of directors, and the stockholders of the Issuer, (b) receipt of a fairness opinion by Issuer’s board of directors, and (c) the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. The full text of the January 28 Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit B and is incorporated herein by reference.

CUSIP No. 828654301

Page 8 of 10

On March 12, 2003, the Issuer disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 that the Issuer’s Board of Directors has formed a special committee of independent directors, consisting of Winston R. Hindle, Jr. and William J. Simione, Jr. (the “Special Committee”), to evaluate, respond or negotiate the proposal set forth in the January 28 Letter, and that the Special Committee has selected legal counsel and an investment banking firm to assist with its review of the proposal.

On April 14, 2003, John Reed, Stewart Reed, and legal counsel met with the Special Committee and its legal counsel to discuss the January 28 Letter. As a result of those discussions, the Reporting Persons have decided to increase the price per share that they are offering to acquire Common Stock from the Issuer, and pursuant to a letter mailed to the Special Committee on or about April 23, 2003 (the “April 23 Letter), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C and is incorporated herein by reference, have modified the January 28 Letter to increase the Price Per Share to $0.75 and to provide that the proposal set forth in the January 28 Letter as so amended (the “Borden Proposal”) will expire on May 23, 2003. The Borden Proposal is currently being considered by and has not been accepted by the Special Committee. This summary of the Borden Proposal does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the January 28 Letter, as amended by the April 23 Letter.

If the proposed Transaction is consummated, the Common Stock would be eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act. Except as stated in response to Item 4 of this Statement, none of the Reporting Persons has a present plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any other action specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right to: propose or participate in future transactions that may result in one or more of such actions, purchase additional securities of the Issuer, dispose of all or a portion of his holdings of securities of the Issuer, and change his intentions with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Item 4.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) - (b) See items 7 through 11 on the cover page of this Statement for each of the Reporting Persons. Together, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 6,467,471 shares of Common Stock which, reflected in terms of a percentage of the 4,371,350 shares of Common Stock outstanding at March 10, 2003 (as reported in the Issuer’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002), plus an aggregate of 4,557,221 shares Common Stock that may be acquired by the Reporting Persons pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and upon conversion of other outstanding securities of the Issuer, is 72.43%.

(d) Except as noted on the cover page of this Statement for each of the Reporting Persons, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, shares of Common Stock.

(e) Not applicable.

January 28, 2003

Board of Directors
CareCentric, Inc.
2625 Cumberland Parkway, Suite 310
Atlanta, Georgia 30339

Gentlemen:

We hereby propose a transaction that would allow CareCentric, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CareCentric”), to deregister its common stock, $.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and to terminate its reporting obligations under Section 13 of the Exchange Act. The principal terms of our “going private” proposal are as follows:

*Proponents:*	John E. Reed, Stewart B. Reed and James A. Burk (the “*Investors*”).
*Structure:*	Statutory merger of Borden Associates, Inc., a Delaware corporation controlled by the Investors (“*Borden”), with and into CareCentric, with CareCentric as the surviving corporation (the “Merger*”), and pursuant to which the number of record holders of the Common Stock would be reduced from approximately 5,500 to approximately 200.
Total Cash Consideration:	An amount (the “*Total Cash Consideration”) equal to the product of (x) $0.55 in cash (the “Per Share Price”), multiplied by (y) the aggregate number of shares owned of record by holders of fewer than 4000 shares of Common Stock on the record date (the “Small Stockholders*”).
*Funding:*	The Investors will fund the purchase of shares from the Small Stockholders by investing in Borden, immediately prior to the Merger, an amount equal to the Total Cash Consideration; provided, however, that the Investors shall not obligated to invest an amount in excess of $450,000, including amounts needed by Borden for expenses related to the transaction.
*Effects of the Merger:*	As a result of the Merger: each share of Common Stock owned of record by a Small Stockholder will be converted into, and will represent the right to receive the Per Share Price, without interest; each share of Common Stock owned of record by a holder other than a Small Stockholder will continue to represent one share of Common Stock after the merger; and the outstanding shares of Borden’s capital stock will, in the aggregate, be converted into the right to receive that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of the Total Cash Consideration divided by the Per Share Price.
*Expenses:*	Each Investor and Borden and CareCentric will be responsible for and bear all of his or its own costs and expenses incurred at any time in connection with pursuing or consummating the proposed transaction.

January 28, 2003
Page 2

We are proposing this going private transaction because we believe that:

CareCentric incurs substantial direct and indirect costs and expenses associated with being a publicly held company, including:

the accounting and legal fees associated with the obligation to file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC, and

the executive time expended to prepare and review such filings,

and we anticipate that these costs and expenses would increase in the future;

CareCentric’ status as a public company is impeding possible equity and debt financing;

CareCentric’s ability to attract and maintain qualified directors and officers has been, and will likely continue to be constrained by new duties imposed on such directors and officers by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations (“Sarbanes-Oxley”);

costs of CareCentric’s director and officer liability insurance is likely to increase substantially; and

CareCentric’s low market capitalization has made it impractical to use its stock as acquisition currency.

We believe the offer contemplated by our proposal is fair and generous to the Small Stockholders based on the following considerations:

The proposed Per Share Price represents a 22.7% premium over the average closing price adjusted for volume of $0.4483 from August 29, 2002 through January 2, 2003 during which period approximately 739,700 shares were traded in the public market under the symbol CURA.OB as reported by Yahoo Finance;

The Merger will provide them with the opportunity to obtain immediate liquidity for their interest in CareCentric without incurring any brokerage commissions or related transaction costs; and

The proposed Per Share Price represents a substantial premium to our estimate of the liquidation value of CareCentric’s assets after taking into account reasonable lease buyout reserves, litigation reserves, employee severance costs, and other related fees and expenses.

We understand that in transactions of this nature, it is typical and advisable for a special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to be established to review proposals of this nature. We understand that the Special Committee will hire its own financial and legal advisors to review, negotiate, and accept or reject our proposal and the terms of the proposed transaction and that such Special Committee may solicit other transactions.

Our proposal is conditioned upon the execution of a definitive merger agreement containing the terms and conditions set forth above and such other mutually agreeable terms and conditions as are customary in agreements of this sort, including but not limited to customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions. It is also subject to, among other things, (1) the approval of the transaction by the Special Committee, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of CareCentric, (2) receipt of a fairness opinion by the Board of Directors, and (3) the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.

January 28, 2003
Page 3

Please advise us at your earliest convenience how you would like to proceed with this proposal. We reserve the right to modify or withdraw this proposal at any time prior to the execution and delivery of the definitive merger agreement in the event that we become aware of any facts or circumstances that we determine, in our sole discretion, make such action appropriate. We will not have any obligation to CareCentric or its stockholders with respect to this proposal unless and until we execute and deliver a definitive merger agreement, which must be in form and content satisfactory to us in our sole discretion.

We and our advisors are prepared to meet with the Special Committee and its advisors to answer any questions that may arise regarding our proposal and the proposed transaction.

Very truly yours,

Atlanta, GA 30339

Gentlemen:

In reference to our letter to you of January 28, 2003 concerning a proposed merger of Borden Associates into CareCentric, Mr. Stewart B. Reed and I met with Messrs. Hindle and Simione, the board committee designated to comment on the fairness of the proposed merger arrangements as set forth in the January 28 letter. Both counsel to the committee and our counsel were present at the meeting where all major elements of the Proposal were discussed in detail.

While there was general agreement as to most aspects of the Proposal, the committee deemed inadequate the price of $.55 per share to be paid in cash to the "small stockholders". A three year forecast of financials, which had been prepared by CareCentric’s management, was given to the Borden representatives as a reason for the committee’s position.

The Board of Directors of Borden has met and given considerable thought to the committee’s position. As a result, it wishes to submit an amendment to a paragraph in its Proposal letter dated January 28, 2003 entitled "Total Cash Consideration" to be amended as follows.

An amount (the "Total Cash Consideration") equal to the product of (x) $0.75 in cash (the "Per Share Price"), multiplied by (y) the aggregate number of shares owned of record by holders of fewer than 4000 shares of Common Stock on the record date (the "Small Stockholders").

Our Board considers this substantial rise in price to be paid for the small stockholders consideration to be the absolute maximum that can be justified and it is, therefore, our best and final offer.

The Proposal as previously stated in our letter of January 28, 2003 with the above amendment will be kept open for thirty days from today’s date and we would appreciate formal action by CareCentric’s Board within that time frame.

Very truly yours,
