    In addition to helping the family plan and work within a budget, Home Health Aides/Personal Care Aides can also help the family cut or reduce their costs. Costs can be reduced in many ways. We often do not even realize all the little things we can do to cut our costs. Saving a little bit here and there and cutting back even just a little add up in the long run to big savings! Here are some ways Home Health Aides/Personal Care Aides can help their patient and their family cut costs and things they can think about doing to help the family save money!

    The following tips will help the Home Health Aide/Personal Care Aide assist the families with whom they work to save on groceries, household costs, and energy costs. You can view these and other tips to save on groceries and household expenses by visiting American Consumer Credit Counseling at: http://www.consumercredit.com/media/90298/Save–by–Cutting–Back-2013.pdf
