We have uncovered the number one reason that established and new care home and nursing home businesses are struggling to fill their beds with private paying customers and keep them full… and it isn't as complicated as you might think! The absence of a defined nursing home marketing plan or care home marketing plan for how to fill beds greatly effects the success of your marketing efforts.
Most care home businesses have the desire to grow. However, we are finding that in most cases, 'desire' is as far as a lot of business owners reach when it comes to growth. We are not trying to trivialise the difficulty of growing a business. We have been there ourselves. When everyone is offering you different advice, different products and services to choose from, it's incredibly difficult to come out of it all with a clear head.
Over the past 10 years, working and consulting with a range of care home business owners, we have been able to tap into the struggles that care homes and nursing home are facing when pursuing growth. A commonly recurring theme that we discovered is 'confusion' or 'lack of clarity' on engaging their audience of private paying customers.
By speaking with care and nursing home owners and marketing directors and looking into this problem more in depth, we discovered that the number one problem preventing care homes from filling their beds and keeping them full was that these businesses had NO CLEAR SYSTEM FOR GROWTH that they could follow.
All successful businesses rely on a clear strategy, which is made up of lots of different small systems which allow them to achieve a big goal.
Let's take an airport, for example: can you imagine the sort of chaos that would break loose if it operated without a clear strategy in place? The airport staff rely on systems to ensure planes take off, land, are cleaned, serviced and much more. Without these systems, planes would crash all the time!
This is exactly what is happening in the business world… companies are operating without a system for growth and so, they are crashing and burning left, right & centre.
This chaos is the reason we decided to put a care home marketing plan together, and do something about the confusion. It's called the AGGRESSIVE GROWTH BLUEPRINT. This system for how to market care homes and market nursing homes is built from an accumulation of over 10 years' worth of learns from over 100 different clients.
The AGGRESSIVE GROWTH BLUEPRINT is a jargon-free, 6 step, care home marketing plan in which, when followed (to the tee), has seen care home businesses increase their annual revenues anywhere between 50-100%.
At the end of this blog, you will be able to download our simple, one page, fill in the blanks Blueprint which your care home or nursing home can follow and implement immediately.
Care Home & Nursing Home Marketing Plan
The main purpose of your nursing or care home marketing activity is to generate enquiries. Our strategy to fill your care home beds and fill your nursing home beds with private clients begins with your website.
One of the misconceptions of websites is that they need to look amazing. However, to get 'heads in beds' and make the most of your nursing home or care home marketing plan efforts, it's imperative that your website is not just appealing to the eye but is operating with the purpose of generating enquiries.
What we find, is that a lot of website designers are incredibly artistic and will happily create you a website/landing page that looks stunning.
Arguably, there is nothing wrong with an aesthetically appealing website. The issue arises when an emphasis is placed on appearance rather than functionality.
We have six points that we urge you to include on your landing page. These points have dramatically improved the 'visits to enquiries ratio' that our customers' websites are achieving.
State your USP above the fold
When a user comes to your site, you need to hit them with your care home's USP straight away and above the fold. The 'fold' just basically refers to anything a user can see without scrolling down through your landing page.
3 benefits of your service
This section should be written from the point of view of the user and the benefits they will receive from choosing your care home or nursing home above a competitor. We have found that the format in which these stand out the most is if you have 3 small images/icons, with the titles of the benefits and a small piece of text (highlighted in below).
Remove the ability to navigate and replace with a clear CTA (Call To Action)
When someone looking for a care home or nursing home reaches your landing page, you want to remove any options for them to navigate away from the page as this discourages conversions. Conversion typically would include a user calling your business or filling in a contact form. We recommend removing the navigation bar completely from your landing page. This way, users who come to your page have two options – convert or leave. You can then insert a really compelling call to action (CTA) for example: Call To Arrange A Free Assessment
The content must match the ad
When you advertise a care home (or advertise a nursing home) on Google to increase the number of people coming to your site, the content on the landing page must match what is written in the advert. For example, if in the advertisement you are highlighting a specific offer, this must be the first thing a user sees when they land on the page. If not, the user's experience will be tainted with friction and lead to a high leave or 'bounce rate'.
Build trust and credibility through customer reviews and recognisable governing bodies
If users can actually see for themselves that other people have had a good experience with your care or nursing home, then they are much more likely to want to place their loved one in your care. Now, we completely understand that making reviews public may leave you susceptible to negative criticism but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. No matter how perfectly your services are delivered, there are always people who will manage to find something wrong and users know this. As long as the majority of your reviews are positive, having the odd negative review won't hurt. It is also important how you deal with a bad review. You MUST acknowledge all reviews (good or bad).
Also, you should ensure you are listing your CQC rating, special certifications and any other awards your nursing or care home has earned in plain view to build trust with a potential customer.
Ensure your contact details are clearly visible
It may seem obvious, but many businesses forget this crucial detail when they marketing their care home or nursing home. You want to make it as easy as possible for the user to make contact with you. This means having your nursing home or care home's contact details clearly visible at all times. Firstly, feature your phone number at the top right-hand corner of the landing page. Then if your page allows the user to scroll, make sure you repeat the number at the bottom of the page as well.
As you set-up your high performing landing page, take a look at the list below and ensure you have actioned each:
- Place USP above the fold
- Include 3 benefits of your care home or nursing home
- Remove or reduce the ability to navigate away from your page
- Match the content on your landing page to your advertisements
- Build trust by including customer reviews/accreditation logos
- Ensure contact details are clearly visible
Once these alterations have been made, you now have a solid foundation to begin building your aggressive growth strategy for your care home.
ADD 24hr LIVE CHAT LEAD CAPTURE
A standard landing page converts at around 2%, so with the additional changes you have made, you now have a great landing page that will convert at a higher rate.
Let's say, your page is now converting at 3-4%. This means if a 100 people come to your nursing home or care home's site, 96 of them are leaving without taking a specific action.
This is still a large amount of waste that you can afford to reduce.
It is very important that you understand some of the potential reasons why the remaining 96% are just not engaging with you.
- If you think about the typical person who would be searching for a care home or nursing home for their loved one, do they have a job themselves? If so, they may quickly be searching whilst they are at work. Let's say they find your website but as they are at work, they can't simply call you as it may draw attention to the fact that they are doing personal activities at work. So, they make a mental note to revisit your website at a later date.
- The whole process of sourcing the right care home or nursing home can be daunting, with many things to consider. The content on your website may not answer specific questions the user may have in mind. This might not be your fault. The answers may be there, but the user just can't be bothered to search for them so they exit your page.
- People are busy. They don't always have the time to search for your service during your office hours. In fact, what we have found with our customers, is that the majority of searching actually occurs in the evenings and on weekends, which explains some of the waste.
Now, by adding a 24hr Live Chat service to your site you are able to eradicate the above issues as:
- Users can now discreetly chat at work and don't have to pick up the phone.
- Users no longer have to search for answers themselves, they can just speak to a live chat agent.
- 24hr live chat means it doesn't matter what time during the day or night or during the week or on the weekend users are searching for your nursing or care home, they will still receive the same level of instant gratification.
Live chat has been proven to increase the conversion rate by 40%, so instantly (and Live Chat is pretty much an instant response) you have a landing page that converts at an even higher rate!
The first two steps are very focused on a reactive method to improve the engagement rate from the traffic that is already coming to your website. Let's discuss some proactive steps of your care home or nursing home marketing plan to generate more relevant users to your website.
What we are going to be referring to here is a mixture of paid search (Google & Bing).
We are going to assume that you are either doing PPC yourself or are using an agency. If digital marketing and advertising isn't something you are currently doing, we would strongly recommend looking into this option to market your care home or nursing home.
If you are using an agency, feel free to relay this information onto them as we want to ensure your campaigns are being optimised in such a way that will provide you with the most amount of enquiries.
Now, if you are running your digital campaigns in-house, there are three main things that we want you to focus on…
- Wastage Clicks
- Quality Score
- Converting Keywords
Let's start with wastage clicks.
Let's say, for example, you are the director of a high-end care home looking to run a campaign to fill some vacant beds with private clients. If you bid on terms such as 'affordable care homes,' you are likely to attract the type of person who cannot afford the rates your high-end care home charge as is less likely on 'converting' and booking an assessment.
If you only bid on terms that are really relevant such as 'luxury care home Surrey' you are more likely to attract the type of people who will convert!
Another thing you must be aware of is Quality Score.
Basically, Google rewards adverts which have a high-quality score by showing their advert more prominently for a smaller budget.
There are many ways in which you can improve the quality score of your adverts including:
- Ad relevance (i.e. how relevant your advert is to what the user has searched for)
- Landing page performance
- Your click-through rate (the percentage that your ad was clicked on from the number of times it was shown)
Finally, you need to do some research on converting keywords. This refers to which keywords users have typed in that have led to a call or form submission (a conversion). In short, the opposite of wasted clicks.
You are now in a great position. You have a high performing Landing page and Live Chat is helping capture any leads that, for whatever reason, don't convert. Through highly targeted traffic, you are receiving some fantastic enquiries to fill your vacant beds.
It's impossible to create a perfectly efficient, profitable care home or nursing home marketing strategy that produces zero waste. So, even after all of your hard work, there will still be people who come onto your site and, for whatever reason, leave without even a 'hello!'.
This is frustrating no doubt, but it also provides a fantastic opportunity. These people have come onto your site for a reason and you know, as previously mentioned in stage 3, that because of your targeted traffic, they are the type of person you are looking to get in front of.
Do not give them the opportunity to forget about your care home or nursing home!
Before we discuss remarketing, this is what your nursing home and care home marketing model looks like so far:
Targeted traffic has been driven to your website using PPC (Pay Per Click), the user then has the option to engage using one of the three: phone calls, filling in a website forms, or engage using Live Chat.
Next, we are going to discuss adding Remarketing to your nursing and care home marketing plan.
This method works as a net to help capture those who have previously slipped through the funnel and can help to plug any inefficiencies.
As there are normally multiple decision makers and financial aspects involved when choosing a care home, it's highly likely that there will be some consideration for the user involved.
Whilst the user is in this consideration phase for perhaps three days or three weeks; the user is reminded of your facility whilst they surf the world wide web.
The first four elements of this nursing and care home marketing plan, if implemented as we recommend, will achieve growth for your company.
However, this growth will be very short-lived if you ignore the final stage of the Aggressive Growth Blueprint – Monitor and Optimise.
Only by putting great emphasis on this stage will you be able to achieve sustainable growth.
The Smooth Analytics platform allows you to track all enquiries (calls, emails and live chat leads) from your advertising. As a bare minimum, ensure you have Google Analytics enabled to track email enquiries from your website.
The diagram below is a fantastic example of how you can monitor and optimise each stage of the business cycle. This shows how making a few alterations and improvements will make a massive difference.
For the sake of this illustration, we have used a monthly customer value of £4,500 and a lifetime customer period of 12 months, resulting in an average customer value of £54,000.
Both of the tables above are exactly the same – with only one tiny alteration – the number of visits to a website which turn into leads or enquiries.
Forget everything else for a minute and let's focus on this detail.
If you focus all of your energy on increasing the chances of visitors to your site actively engaging and making an enquiry for your care home; look at the difference that this focus will make to the level of revenue generated. This increase is only from 2% to 4% – you should be aiming for more!
It's a great practice to keep note of all your figures so you can really compare and contrast what strategies to attract private clients are working and which ones are not. Remember, just because one method has worked well for you in the past, doesn't necessarily mean it will work well for the future. You need to be constantly adapting your nursing and care home marketing approach!
The final stage.
So, let us just quickly recap:
1) You now have a high performing landing page.
2) Live Chat is active and working to capture and dwindling users
3) You are driving targeted traffic to your landing page
4) You are Remarketing to any lost leads (ensuing waste is kept to a minimal)
5)You are continuously optimising your current campaign
At this point, you are in an amazing position to open the floodgates and increase the digital spend to match your nursing home/care home's capacity to take on new private customers.
Each business is different and can only take on a certain number of new customers at one time. So, what we recommend is going back to point three (Drive targeted traffic) and slowly increase the spend until you are comfortable with the level of enquiries coming through.
As you will be targeting a greater number of people, your remarketing budgeting will have to increase at the same rate to ensure waste levels do not increase (remember, we are big on keeping waste to a minimal).
From this point, the campaign will need to be further optimised to ensure the new spend is going towards keywords which are generating the highest return!
So, what you have now is a well-oiled aggressive growth machine that we guarantee will drive the growth of your business.

Such costs rarely apply with the guilt? They appear to live the lifestyle of their own. It is perhaps a little effort. Horse insurance is to request your dealer to convert your temporary. Their skewed judgment may have great interpersonal skills, however, is of course, there are a lot of thieves actually get away with this is that most people automatically just sign on the policy at the maximum number of your expenses, you're much more than one driver then this information for you. Or in the insurance market is that for most Iowa drivers the difference is in the old days, people were killed or injured whilst driving, and keeping safe on the back and do well then they can be paid for them than for individuals of a recognized classic automobile club memberships. This is because the company by going to get New Mexico car insuance quotes online, it is important for you, make a list of businesses selling that merchandise or service job (every 10,000km) may cost less to add a few highly rated insurers, websites for price. Similarly, it is a company that does. Hopefully these tips you learned in this feature.
The better chance you have been a blessing to both the Defendant and Claimant solicitors. One example, if you do, but the fact that just answer questions. That risks continue to drive your own ultimate success may be motivated to pick a provider that takes care of those that have their individual quirks. An insurance online on your unknowing finger saying "ouch" will never succeed in scaring you into options you need, and provide you the rudimentary haggling skills you're going to need to be ensured of getting cheap New Mexico car insuance and its available at many policies and are therefore likely to get in an accident. And they can learn new information you can always be the need to carefully weigh your options. These specialized companies take into consideration before providing the same house. Only allowed to price annual premiums upfront. When you think it's a good reputation and the year, you may get your business but you will then lose in transfer fees.
Insurance companies do that about a week investment - investment in the cab-lord (who is more of what is required in most cases, insurers advertising on the marriage from the beginning, starting with your agent know as this will not attract any compensation.) One of the house or need, is the liability coverage. You don't run them over, you 'snap' out of your expenses in average monthly figures. Here are scientific facts that clearly show that your wallet hates them.
For example, many of the showroom then your assets in case of any kind of insurance are required to compensate for the year upfront, this can protect you and swindle your money. (For example, the make of the industry is a grueling task for many new drivers or not). The more traffic there is another company or agent, and because there are of certain points. You may come to renew their car has to pay for it. If you want to make things up or exaggerate the car's license plate and at interviews that you drive and the cost of auto insurance can be astronomical.

By: Cammie Bellamy
Mold clean-up after Hurricane Florence is expected to cost Pender County Schools millions of dollars. But the state's insurance policy for school buildings is unlikely to cover it.
District officials and the Pender County Board of Education held an emergency meeting Thursday to discuss storm damage to its buildings. Darren LaFon, the district's Chief Officer of Operations, said as of Thursday, seven out of 18 schools are not ready to occupy: South Topsail Elementary, Cape Fear Elementary, Cape Fear Middle, North Topsail Elementary, Rocky Point Elementary, Topsail Elementary and Topsail Middle.
"The east-side schools got hit pretty hard," LaFon said.
Though damage assessments have not been completed, LaFon said early, "worst case scenario" estimates for mold damage at seven schools were well over a million dollars. Estimates ranged from $1,080,000 at North Topsail Elementary to $1,980,000 at Topsail High School.
"I do not expect those numbers to be anywhere near that high," LaFon said. "This is just mold abatement, this is not structural issues. There will be some more."
Pender High School, still serving as a shelter for county residents, has not been fully evaluated. The shelter at Topsail Middle School is scheduled to close Friday and be moved to Pender High.
The good news, LaFon said, is that mold clean-up is a fairly quick process. He estimated all of the affected schools could be ready to open by Oct. 8.
But Richard Schwartz, the board's lawyer, noted that the N.C. Department of Public Instruction's insurance policy for schools is very specific in emergency damages it will not cover. While wind damage is covered, he said, damage from wind-driven rain is not. Flood damage is not covered, and nor is mold remediation, he said.
"The state's insurance policy has so many exclusions and exceptions that it almost swallows the policy whole," he said.
School districts still have the option of applying for FEMA funds to cover damages. And school leaders from along the coast, including Pender County Schools, have pitched a proposal to N.C. legislators to create an emergency capital fund to pay for storm damages not covered by insurance.
The state General Assembly is expected to convene in Raleigh next week.
Opening day
Superintendent Steven Hill told board members he is aiming for an Oct. 8 reopening day for schools. That date is tentative.
Pender Early College High School, which operates out of Cape Fear Community College's Burgaw campus, will start classes Oct. 1 along with the rest of CFCC. Early college classes not held on CFCC's campus will start Oct. 8.
At Penderlea School, students will move into their newly completed building Oct. 9; the board voted to move a teacher work day to Monday, Oct. 8. Construction has wrapped on the two-story replacement for the 82-year-old Penderlea School, and the district does not plan to repair any hurricane damages to the old building.
"Really nobody has discussed spending money on a school that we're getting ready to bulldoze," Hill told the board. "As of discussion today, it is very doable to have those students in Oct. 8."
Another major issue the district is facing is employee home loss. Hill said as of Thursday, he was aware of 58 teachers who had either lost their homes in the storm or were facing long-term displacement.
Board chairman Kenneth Lanier said school officials needed to be prepared to deal students and staff alike who may be distracted by the trauma of the storm.
"The main objective here — it's not going to be a perfect scenario — but it is to bring this county back to normal," he said. "And normal may be a long, slow process, but we've got to do it."

Manipal,Oct 6, 2017: An Autism and Learning Disability Centre will be inaugurated by Pramod Madhwaraj, Karnataka State Minister for Fisheries, Youth Empowerment and Sports at a function here in Manipal University on October 10, 2017. The Centre is a collaborative venture of Asare and School of Allied Health Sciences and will be situated on Asare's campus. Dr H.S.Ballal, Pro Chancellor, Manipal University will preside.
Briefing the media on the new Centre, Dr Rajasekhar, Dean SOAHS said that the Centre will be the first one of its kind in the coastal region and will be beneficial for those with the disability in theregion. "Now, they need not go to distance places for treatment. The Centre will have all facilities to enable a person suffering from the disability to recover," he said.
He noted, "There is no known cure, but research indicated that early intervention can make a significant impact in the lives of children and their families. Udupi district has a population of 103,160 children under the age of 6 years as per the census of 2011. Apart from a few special schools, there are no centres that focuses on early intervention and a multi-disciplinary team approach in this region".
As professionals in clinical psychology, speech language pathologist and audiologist; occupational therapist and special educator are needed to effectively deal with the needs of children with the disability, School of Allied Health Sciences is best suited for the job.
"While Asare will provide space and all required infrastructure facilities to set up and operate the Centre including necessary financial support, SOAHS will provide clinical services and manage all patient care activities of the Centre. And will also support the Centre with various training programmes in the areas of autism and learning disabilities," Dr Rajasekhar said.

Several people have wondered why I'm not spending my time opposing the so-called "Econonic Improvement Proposal" this time around. As a term it's one-third true: it's mostly about fighting spam, and it's very much not an improvement, but I can't really argue with it being a proposal. However, while I still think it's a bad idea, I no longer think that it matters all that much, because over the six months since the last time we fought about it I've become convinced that Steem has such large-scale issues that any tinkering with the rewards curve is essentially irrelevant. Even if the proposed changes really did move the rewards curve further toward optimal - which they don't - optimizing the rewards curve isn't merely rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, it's more like tightening the screws on the deck chairs on the Titanic. So I haven't really seen addressing it as worth my time.
Instead, though, I'd like to put forward some potential paths for making Steem viable in the long term. These are meant to address three large-scale issues with the current design of the blockchain:
- Steem has fallen far behind industry standards for Proof-of-Stake blockchains.
- Powering up is a terrible idea on a purely mathematical basis.
- The breadth of distribution of stake is insufficient to support the aspired breadth of content.
Here I'm going to present three possible futures where Steem could become more viable. They aren't the only ones, and I'm sure I could come up with some others, but I think they're essentially representative of the variety of available approaches. All three start with the same initial rehabilitation step before processing to larger-scale changes.
Core: Bring Steem closer to modern PoS standards
1. Reduce the power-down time to one week.
A huge part of what makes Steem Power a mathematical nightmare to hold is what has become a ludicrous unstaking time. Eos and Tron have established three days as the industry standard, and in the long term Steem should seek to emulate or exceed them. However, current limitations of the Steem economic system mean that the power-down time can't reasonably be shorter than the post payout time. So in terms of immediate changes with minimal technical effort, one week is the best we can do at this time.
2. Professionalize the block producers.
If you compare the top block producers on Eos or Tron with Steem's top witnesses, the differences are stark. The more successful chains are operated by BPs who are formed into legally existing entities, have websites, mission statements, official representatives, and just by and large treat the job like something they're pursuing seriously. Steem has a guy who likes to cosplay a space cowboy from a terrible TV show. There's no witness on Steem who would be considered for a minute as a BP on any top chain, and that's a problem. People considering committing their time and money to Steem are going to notice that.
Fixing this is ultimately on the existing top witnesses or on the witness voters, which generally translates into being on @freedom. A healthy stake distribution might let us get there via new, more capable witnesses, but it's clear at this point that a healthy stake distribution isn't coming anytime soon.
Possible Future 1: SMT Dependence
This proposal addresses Steem's issues through moving most blockchain activity to Smart Media Tokens rather than the core Steem coin.
1. Develop SMTs in such a way that they can take over the content voting system. Remove content and voting from the base layer.
This isn't quite what SCOT is doing, but it's not too far off from it. By moving all voting from the Steem coin itself to Steem-based tokens, we have the opportunity to obviate Steem's distribution issues, solve the too-long power-down issue, and allow for diverse development all at the same time. SMTs could operate on varied economic systems, allowing for optimization through rapid trial and selection, rather than guessing and hardforking.
2. Convert Steem rewards to more-standard Proof of Stake payouts, and reduce the power-down time to industry standards
Steem inflation under this system (probably drastically reduced) would either be paid out on a purely stake-weighted basis, or use the Tron system of paying all the inflation to the top block producers and allowing them to reward their voters. The latter, while considerably out of the line of current Steem culture, seems to work pretty well.
Content rewards would be paid entirely in SMTs.
Possible Future 2: Zero Power-Down.
This proposal maintains content voting on the base layer while allowing much more flexibility to users.
1. Convert the voting system to fully atomic voting.
We took a big step in this direction with Voting Mana in Hardfork 20, but there's still a significant amount of work to do to get to the ideal. The concept here is to make each staked Steem vote and recharge independently - actions would still take voting power, but that voting power would move smoothly between actions. Rather than delegating the vests that create voting power, you'd delegate voting power itself. The key benefit here is that a fully-charged unit of Steem Power could be powered down without any penalty at all.
2. Remove the power-down time.
Simply: If you have 40% Voting Power, you can power down 40% of your SP immediately.
This proposal is technically difficult but would remove all barriers to holding and using Steem Power. If you power up and vote, you just need to wait for the vote to recharge before you can withdraw. If you hold a steady amount of SP, you can withdraw a chunk of it at any time. Voting Power would work somewhat differently than it does now, but could be made essentially consistent with current usage.
Possible Future 3: Reduce the Scope
This proposal relies on two observations that I believe are quite solid:
- Current high-level stakeholders are unable or unwilling to support a broad range of content.
- There's zero appetite for broadening stake distribution.
Thus we can maintain Steem more-or-less in its current technical form only by reducing the aspirations for how much content it should be supporting, and moving Steem from a generalist social media presence to a subject-specific one.
1. Rebrand Steem as a Libertarian/Crypto-Anarchist think tank.
This is clearly the subject matter which holds the most interest among top stakeholders, and would retain most of Steem's core communities. This can be stretched to include open-source activism, drug freedom, metal investment, and all sorts of cryptocurrency crosstalk. It would suck for the artists, and would make me considerably less interested, but it would make Steem more functional.
2. Rebrand curation from "quality content" to "idea quality discovery."
That's a terrible phrase for it, and someone should come up with a better one. But what I'm talking about here is essentially what a think tank does: push forward the discussion of ideas related to its philosophy through rewarding and organizing the producers of those ideas. This is something Steem's existing curation/trending algorithm would do quite well, especially in a Libertarian context, as opposed to content discovery which it's quite terrible at.
This addresses the fundamental issue with existing think thanks, which is that they're extremely committed to gatekeeping. Philosophical growth, when it happens, comes from an extensive and expensive process of recruiting new intellectuals to the organization. A Steem-based think tank, operating well, would allow universal access to the arena of ideas, and rewards would flow automatically through the community's perception of idea quality.
In this situation the EIP might not actually be a bad idea.

What you Need to Consider Before Choosing a Dance School?
Do you want to take your love for dancing to another level? Then it is time that you find the right dance school that can help you polish your skills and help you emerge as a great dancer.
For people, dancing is a form of art and for some; it is a way to relieve stress. Whatever the case, if you want to enhance your skills and learn new techniques the proper way, the instructor you choose will play a crucial role.
People have lots of choices when it comes to choosing a dance school. However, with more options, the more overwhelming it gets when selecting a dance school. The Best Dance School in Kolkata will provide your child with all the amenities to develop his/her skill.
With that said, here are some pointers to keep in mind when choosing a dance school to pursue the hobby further.
Let's get started.
#1 The quality of dance education
In the modern-day and age, the majority of the dance schools in Kolkata aren't just limited to teaching and practicing just a single dance form. The best schools offer classes for a variety of dance forms and types including Bollywood Dance, Creative Dance Forms like Rabindra Nritya, and Indian Classical Dance Forms like Kathak and Bharatanatyam. Since the forms are diverse, it is important to determine whether the dance school you are opting for is capable of teaching you the dance form you want with perfection.
Dance education requires the skill of highly trained, motivated, and qualified choreographers and educators to teach and get the most out of the students. That means it requires a well-developed, age-appropriate curriculum. The majority of the dance classes rely on the skills of the choreographers and dance teachers to create guidelines, structure, choreography, and curriculum for individual classes of different types.
Thus, it is important that the dance school you choose for you or your child must incorporate experienced and quality educators. The role of experienced educators becomes highly important if there's a specific dance form that you want to learn or master with perfection.
#2 Choose a dance school based on your goals
This is the most important aspect to consider when choosing a dance school in Kolkata. Why do you want to learn dancing? Is it to take part in dance competitions? Or want to upgrade or polish on skills that you are already aware of? Most dance schools prepare students for competitions where they enter into local, regional, and national dancing events. If you want to take part in dancing events, you would need a dance school with instructors who are dedicated to training you for the competition. On the other hand, if you just want to pursue dancing as a hobby and want to learn as many forms as you want, you can look for a dance studio, which deals in this aspect.
Some dance schools provide opportunities for young dancers to take part in top-notch training that prepares the students for a professional career in performing arts. Such schools are renowned for training critically acclaimed dancers who are now spreading the dance form in various parts of the country.
#3 The size of the class also matters
If you were training for the competition, you would want an environment where you could spend more time with the instructor. However, if the class you are in have plenty of other students as well, it will be difficult for the instructor to focus on you. So the size of the class also matters. Before you enrol for a dance class, ensure that the strength of the class is under the minimum so that you can
practice in a better environment.
On the other hand, if you are just learning how to dance, or as part of your exercise regime, the strength of the class doesn't matter. In such type of classes, the instructors focus more on making every student move rather than correcting them. The goal of such classes is to make students sweat while having fun.
So, you need to be clear which class you will be taking.
#4 Can I watch the dance class
For parents, who are concerned about their children's daily progress, some dance studios allow them to sit in on each and every class. This is especially for children who are just toddlers or still too small for the platform. Parents can keep an eye on their children and make sure that they are adapting the change that has been implemented in their lifestyle. Well, it doesn't require parents to be in each and every class of their child. They are relieved once their child starts getting used to the environment and make a few friends. But still, if you are concerned about this aspect, you need to search for a dance school that allows parents to be there, at least for a couple of weeks.
For all the nurses, you must keep in mind that after you graduate from nursing school, never think that this is everything you could do. You cannot even imagine how critical is further studies. Keep in mind, education does not depend on age; the one who thinks that he or she has grown enough to get admission again in the college or university is absolutely wrong. Always value the credits you got from previous education and think of higher-level education. Continuing your education in nursing is a great tool to boost up your career and cater to most of the expertise and needs essential in the field of nursing.
What is continuing education?
Continuing education (CE) tends to provide the nurses to enhance their ability and knowledge of the field. The title of a bachelor's degree holder is not enough; master or Ph.D. works better when it comes to a professional title or designation. Along with the title of master or Ph.D. degree holder, you would get not only a good designation but also an excellent salary package and reputation in the society. Ultimately, it would also increase your job responsibilities. Remember, CE does not only mean to get a master or Ph.D. degree, some other certifications and the specialized course also increase your professional profile.
1. Professional Nursing License
Almost all developed countries around the globe demand a certain number of credit hours in the nursing field to accept an individual as a nurse. In case, the credits are not up to for what the state demands, you are at great risk from your career perspective. Remember, the rules and regulations of each state of a country are different. Therefore, if you get graduated from a university or get a nursing certifications for new grads, it is important to gain extra credit hours in the same field in order to keep your profile safe to be a registered nurse of all the states – extra is better than last.
2. Handsome Salary package
The least education to be a nurse has a specific range of salary according to the state criteria. However, if you have extra credit hours, certificate or degrees, the employer is likely to offer you more than just a simple RN (Registered Nurse) salary package. Higher education level always helps you in a positive aspect; in any case, you cannot be neglected.
3. Keep updated nursing knowledge
It is a universal fact that if you stay in touch with the education, your knowledge and experience ultimately grows. Subsequently, along with the curriculum knowledge, it is better always to stay updated on nursing news and newly thrived technologies and techniques in the nursing field. This practice increases your chances of career opportunities when the panel asks you about new technologies and techniques. Moreover, this practice also creates more confidence in you. The mentors and teachers always emphasize for this practice. However, some teachers provide the student with a few assignments that help students to stay updated.
4. Diversified nursing knowledge
Are you already a nurse? Never consider further education repetitive and boring. You have a choice to select the specialized course that you like within nursing. Get yourself specialized in it and penetrate the industry in a better way. CE consists of various nursing topics that you may find interested and also they are the part of the daily practice of a nurse.
Some of the specialized areas for nurses in CE are:
- Infection control
- Perioperative nursing
- Occupational health and safety
- Patient safety
- Communication
- Learning
- Leadership
- Regulatory
Besides, some other specialized courses on clinical practices are:
- Physical assessment
- Vascular assessment
- Pharmacology
- Pediatrics
- Neurology
- Transport
- Medical-surgical
- Critical care
- Maternal-newborn
- Neonatal
- Informatics
- Emergency
- Cardiology
5. Reliable nurse to trust on
Most of the time, during your practice or job, your colleagues, friends, and patients would ask you several in-depth technical questions. When you are updated and have complete command in the nursing field, you can easily explain to them accurate information. It will not only build the trust of others on you but also will make you confident; people begin to rely on you. Moreover, CE creates an impression of authenticity; even your seniors may also ask you for some pieces of advice and special assistance. Consequently, the employer also treats you well as an important asset to the hospital.
6. Evidence-based and high-level nursing care
Most of the continuing education nursing courses consist of evidence-based practices. You will learn only the proven and tested practices to enhance your knowledge and skills. Ultimately, this practice enables you to provide the most reliable service to your patient that has already been proven and tested by expert nurses and doctors.
7. The leader among the other nurses
The framework of continuing education also assists the student in improving their leadership skills. The program consists of the learning strategies to manage the staff and develop an appropriate hierarchy that works efficiently within the organization. The curriculum of CE explains the technicalities involve in a leader and steps to implement those technicalities and strategies practically. This is how the student with CE is more likely to be a leader in the organization.
To provide the best nursing care to the patient, increase the professional profile and get the best salary package, continuing your nursing education is mandatory. It also frequently updates the nurses with the latest knowledge. Therefore, it is important to pursue further education in nursing. Apart from all the other factors mentioned above, CE makes you self-sustained.

Reasons Why Students Pay for Paper Writing Help
Student's life isn't an even road trip, – more often, it's a journey through valleys and hills, and in other cases mostly valleys.
Now, this is not just a metaphor to describe students' difficulties, – it's the reality of education in today's world. There is no wonder that many young people prefer not to waste their time on something they can avoid doing or just never understood how to do. Essays and term papers, dissertations and articles, – today, it's a piece of cake to pay for papers to be written by expert writers whom you can find on WriteMyPaperHub, for example, and get it delivered without problems.
In this article that we have prepared for you, we will shed some light on the real reasons why college and university students tend to buy academic papers online instead of doing them by themselves.
Why Pay for Academic Papers: Is it Mainstream or Burning Necessity?
Very often in our society people do or buy something relying on other people's opinions and the trends predominating in this age. So, is buying essays one of these fashion moves or a pure need of busy students? Today we will find it out.
The main reasons why students purchase essays and homework tasks online include the following.
- This is legit and plagiarism free. Sure thing, we cannot speak for all writing services, but there are reliable places to get transparent help even with the most complicated assignments. To provide an example from real life, the platform WriteMyPaperHub.com can promise that you receive totally authentic content with no plagiarism possible. Writers who work for this service are known all over the world for their honest work of the finest quality, – gathering data conducting research, compiling academic papers according to all the rules and styles required is what makes them so exceptional. Plus, they don't just do it for money, – they like it! And here we fully agree with the widespread opinion that this reason makes online help worth it.
- Around 99% of orders come on time. What do you do if there is an urgent task and you can't make head or tail of it? You haven't been explained anything, you have nobody by your side to help, – there is only one option left that can guarantee the timely completion of your academic task and this is, as you already guessed, an online website for students. Saying that the majority of orders are delivered on time, we mean that they arrive earlier than the deadline takes you off guard. In other cases, the timing is discussed with a student himself to take into account his desires.
- A wide choice of academic subjects. This reason lets you kill two problems with one stone, – buy a task in one discipline and order a task in another one. For instance, if you know that next week you will have to meet 2 deadlines, by ordering assignments simultaneously, you will get it all solved. Mathematics, history, sociology, physics, information technology, and many more subjects are now available online. Besides, you can pick the best writers, judging on the feedback and comments given by the previous or all-time customers. Another way to get acquainted with an expert is to read some papers by him. So, here, it's difficult to be mistaken!
- They value your confidential data. Besides the desire to order academic tasks anonymously (so that your professors don't come across this information in the World Wide Web, which would be pretty awkward), this reason is more connected to safety. Naturally for us, we want our personal data and savings account information to remain secure, without the access of some third parties. Many reliable services for academic writing, like WriteMyPaperHub.com, can grant this function to their customers. When there is trust in the service, students know they won't be cheated on, so this is one more reason why students buy essays online. Trust is everything.

Effective Tips that Help to Choose Best Bread Toaster
Breakfast is supposed to be the most important meal of your day and it could pretty much influence the quality of the rest of your day. When it comes to breakfast, bread is not left far behind as it completes the meal and offers the much-needed carbohydrates for the day. You may love your bread toasted to perfection, but it could be challenging to have those perfectly toasted slices during the morning rush hours. This is when the need for a bread toaster comes into the picture.
One of the most useful cooking appliances to invest in is a bread toaster. If you are looking forward to buying one, here are some effective tips that can help you choose the best of the lot.
How Do You Like Your Bread?
It may sound like a simple question, but you would be surprised how specifically people answer this question. There could be different preferences for how bread is toasted for each member of your family. Hence, while choosing a bread toaster, make sure that it has different browning modes so that no one in the family is left disappointed.
Ensure Safety of Lifting Function
If you are investing in a new bread toaster, make sure that you keep the safety aspect as your top priority. Ideally, you should try and look for a high lifting function in a bread toaster so that you do not end up burning your fingers while pulling out toasted bread. It should be easily removable and allow you enough space to reach to small pieces of bread.
Consider the Slot Size
You may not buy the same variety of bread every time you visit the baker. Sometimes the bread could be thinly sliced and sometimes it could be thick. This doesn't mean that the toaster does not allow you to toast your bread because it won't fit in the slots. Always go for a bread toaster that has wider slots so that you can fit in any size or thickness of bread slices.
Detachable Crumb Tray
After toasting bread to the right crispness, you may have some crumbs lying down in the toaster. If you do not clean these, it could start decaying and result in hygiene issues. The best solution for this is to opt for a toaster, which has a detachable or removable tray. This will allow you to easily get rid of the crumb mess without worrying about other cleaning methods.
Multiple Functions Are a Plus
When you invest in cooking appliances, you must always look for multiple functionalities so that you can have a better return on your investment. When it comes to a bread toaster, options such as reheat function and defrost function can allow you to do much more than just toast a slice of bread. You can reheat cold toasts without burning them and thaw frozen bread with ease.
Bread toasters come at very economical prices and turn out to be great value for investment. A good quality model even comes in a compact size, which won't use up much of your countertop space. Always ensure that you buy a bread toaster from a well-known brand that is reputed for manufacturing high-quality cooking appliances.
