                         Directors' interests in shares



Earlier today, Cardinal Health Inc. ("Cardinal Health") announced that the
recommended cash offer of 280 pence per share (the "Offer") for the entire
issued and to be issued share capital of The Intercare Group plc ("Intercare"),
announced on 29 October 2003, made by Credit Suisse First Boston on behalf of
Cardinal Health U.K. 418 Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cardinal Health,
had been declared unconditional in all respects.



As announced on 29 October 2003, each of the directors of Intercare and their
spouses irrevocably undertook to accept the Offer in respect of their own
beneficial holdings of, in aggregate, 234,399 ordinary shares of 2.5 pence each
in Intercare.  Accordingly, now that the Offer has been declared unconditional
in all respects, each of the directors of Intercare is no longer interested in
these shares.  As a consequence, Kenneth Harvey, Christopher FitzGerald and Alan
Pilgrim are no longer interested in any Intercare shares.  John Parker, Andrew
Kay and Jeremy Earnshaw remain interested in the options over 445,854, 361,256
and 247,258 Intercare shares respectively that they had prior to the
announcement of the Offer.
