Do You Use Videos in Marketing Your Staff Safety With New Delta Variant?

September 2, 2021

Will you use videos to show your agency’s commitment to COVID safety with the new highly transmissible Delta variant ? Online video content continues explode in growth and according to a 2020 study. 84% of people say that they’ve been convinced to buy a product or service by watching a brand’s video.  

Video can be a tool to add to your home care or geriatric care management  marketing plan to show the extreme safety protocols your GCM or homecare agency during the Delta variant Explosion of COVID19 to overcome adult children’s hesitation to use homecare and GCM services.

Why hesitation?

 

Older people still account for most Covid-19 deaths, and in many counties in the US, especially in the South and Mountain West, seniors without full vaccination make up more than 10 percent of the total population.

Even though the majority of seniors have been vaccinated, they now need a booster shot to prevent breakthrough infection from the Delta variant. This will only surge as the coming fall & winter makes everyone stay in the more risky indoors

So aging families remain very nervous about your agency coming into a senior home.

What families look for in your agency is  assurance of your staff’s safety- the care providers, care managers, and office staff’s vaccination rate, your safety protocols, PPE equipment use, and evidence that you work with your local department of health, state  and CDC to stay compliant.

 

 

 As US clients are using  services like care managers and home care again, it is critical that you build that trust by showing customers you are totally CDC  safe. It is also important that you position your agency ahead of your local competition and that can be achieved through video. That can be achieved through using video video when your competition does not.

Videos are the new  powerful  Marketing Tool

The importance of video marketing shows in its growth to a $135 billion industry. Brands everywhere are realizing the value of video and creating them. According to ALCA’s marketing guru Courtney Pulitzer,75 million people watch videos every day and stunning viewers retain 95% of the message while watching compared to only 10 %-of reading text.

Use Videos in your own Care Management Marketing

Show your community your agency’s excellent safety through videos, done with a phone by a talented staff member. Take the example of Lifespan a 35-year-old geriatric care management home care agency that provides Quality of Life activities and adds videos about  Lifespan‘s Well Being Program. They upload them to their YouTube channel another great way they build trust with their agency. Market safety from Covid-19.

 Videos are not hard to make

You just need a smartphone tripod and a person to do the videoing. I have a YouTube Channel on Geriatric Care Management for years. I made most of them with an I phone.

However , I have gotten much more sophisticated and now two a videographers . An excellent one is Tapfilms , also used by Lifespan. A second is

 East Coast Studios  that does all my on-line classes in geriatric care management.

If you belong to the Aging Life Care Asso ( ALCA) use their excellent video marketing resources

Trump’s COVID Mixed Messages Push-Up-Deaths So No CLear Path for AGING Families

September 6, 2020

The World Health Chief warned that in a Pandemic mixed messages coming from national leaders give their people no clear path to follow to keep themselves safe from COVID. This is esspecially true of aging family members who are trying to protect the most vulnerable to coronavirus-  older people.

 

In US Federal Government and US Scientist Point to two Different to paths to” Safety”

In the US Federal officials, like the TRUMP administration offers a murky path to stay safe -while top scientists like the CDC and Dr. Fauci offer science-based recommendations. It is like a signpost is a tsunami zone with two different directions to higher ground. State governors who have been left in charge of protecting American citizens, rather than the federal governments and all have different messages. Some states are closed down, while others do not allow masks in spite of the massive spread of the virus. People do not know what to do, as the Feds, the states, the counties, and cities all have different guidelines and laws about how to stay protected from the worst pandemic since 1918.

President Woodrow Wilson Pointed the Wrong Direction is 1918 Pandemic

It is not new. President Wilson lied to the American public about the 1918 pandemic as he had declared war with Germany and wanted the US war machine to go full throttle. So soldiers in camps in the US died by the thousands and sailed to Europe spreading the 1918 plague, while Wilson never uttered a word, except to say it was like the common cold. He contracted COVID in France, trying to negotiate the Treaty of Versailles, subsequently had a stroke kept secret,(stroke being a side effect of COVID we now know ) and his wife effectively ran the county.

Science is being Maligned and Sidelined in COVID-19

What happens these when confusing messages are given by so many leaders who are not scientists but politicians with their own agenda? Scientists like Dr. Fauci are both maligned and sidelined. .The CDC once the most prestigious health agency in the world is forced to give false scientific information by the TRUMP administration.

 One terrifying result is COVID cases are soaring in the US As of  September 3, we had 6.1 M cases and 189 K deaths.  Younger people and even older residents are celebrating summer and now Labor Day with no masks no social distancing as if there was no COVID. We now celebrate Labor day with people gathering with no masks, college opening with the spread of the virus, and children used as guinea pigs in some states mandated to return the schools that have no federal money to make their classrooms safe 

Aging families, who want to keep their loved ones safe need aging professionals to offer clear paths to safety. Can you be that navigator to safety?

Trump’s Mixed Messages About COVID Increasing Deaths and leaving No straight Path for AGING Families

130 million Dead COVID- Trump will not require the #1 deterrent -Masks

July 9, 2020

Number 1 Prevention of COVID -19  Wearing A Mask

The Coronavirus yesterday reached the 3 million mark in mark in cases  The number one preventative step we could have taken is to wear masks 

 

Citing Lone Ranger-TRUMP Refuses National Order For Masks

Yet, President Trump refuses to issue a federal order to wear masks and leaves it up to the states. In Texas, where the coronavirus rampages, the  Republican governor has also refused to issue a state order to wear masks. Like ordering the US to wear masks, has something to do with his looks, Trump said a mask makes him look like the Lone Ranger. The Lone Star state topped over 1000 cases 5 days in a row

 

33 Million Would Not Be Dead if Masks Ordered in  October

A new study says wearing masks would have saved 33 million lives since last October. Yet there are still no federal mask requirements.

Lack of President’s National Response Leading to New Depression- Says World Bank

This lack of federal response, like no federal order to wear masks, is not only killing huge swaths of the world population but has torpedoed our economy. President Trump wants to reboot the economy yet by not using federal controls, according to the World Bank the President is moving us to a recession and the cusp of depression worldwide.

Less than half the States Require Masks

Only 20 states require masks as Trump, instead of requiring masks, has left it up to the states. He relented recently, narcissistically,  saying he thought he looked good- like the lone ranger in a mask but ordered no federal requirement. 

Dr. Anthony Fauci predicts a few days ago that the huge COVID spread could leave 100 million a day dying. Masks are our # 1 deterrent again this  slaughter by the omission of using federal powers

33 States Now in Crisis Surge of Virus Sunbelt Devastated

A total of 33 states now have a coronavirus surge with 7 states in the southwest at a crisis level.

Without required preventative steps from the Trump government and the wildfire surge immolating ¾ of our states, COVID 19 is not going away, in fact, may last well into 2021

Mixed -Messaging by President, States, Counties Gives Families no Path to Virus Safety

The problem is made more confusing by the administration’s mixed messaging with different states, cities, counties telling residents what to do to be safe. Families have no idea which way to turn to keep themselves and the most vulnerable senior family members safe.
