ITEM 3.03   MATERIAL MODIFICATION TO RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (the
"Registrant") held on May 22, 2007, the shareholders of the Registrant approved
a proposal to amend the Registrant's Amended and Restated articles of
Incorporation. The amendment increases the aggregate number of shares of common
stock authorized to be issued by the Registrant from 30,000,000 to 100,000,000.
The Amendment was subsequently filed in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The
purpose of the amendment is to provide sufficient shares for future
acquisitions, benefit plans, recapitalizations and other corporate purposes. No
such use other than to provide for an adequate number of shares for issuance
pursuant to the Registrant's Stock Option Plans currently is planned.
