Addiction Counselor - Level II

We need to output only HTML fragment with sections for headings where there is real content. The posting includes marketing statement (intro), duties & responsibilities, purpose of position, essential duties and responsibilities, minimum qualifications, notes, department preferences, how to apply (but we must drop application instructions). Also we need to remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. We need to use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting includes: Marketing Statement (intro) maybe "About the role"? Could be "About the role" or "About the position". The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map sections: "About the role" for marketing/intro. "Responsibilities" for duties & responsibilities and purpose of position and essential duties. "Qualifications" for minimum qualifications and notes. Possibly "Skills" not present. "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule" not present, so omit. We must not repeat job title as heading (not given). No Job ID. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to decide how to structure content. We have marketing statement paragraphs: multiple paragraphs. We'll put them under

  About the role

  with

  elements. Then Responsibilities: includes "Duties & Responsibilities" description, "Purpose Of Position", "Essential Duties And Responsibilities". Could combine into one Responsibilities section with lists. We need to extract list items: The duties are described in paragraphs, some bullet-like lists (e.g., "The SHOW Program Includes The Services Listed Below" then list). Also essential duties list enumerated with semicolons? Actually they are sentences with semicolons separating multiple tasks. We could break them into

• items where appropriate. But instruction: Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if there is a list, we should use ul/li. For prose, use p. We need to decide what constitutes a list. The posting includes: - Under "Duties & Responsibilities": description of SHOW program, then "The SHOW Program Includes The Services Listed Below" followed by bullet-like list: Clinical Services - COVID-19 testing and vaccination - Additional vaccinations (e.g., TDAP, Hepatitis A, flu) - Wound care - Basic evaluation of symptoms or health concerns - Behavioral Health Support and Harm Reduction - Engagement and education around mental health questions or concerns - Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for substance use disorders - Harm reduction services, such as naloxone and Fentanyl test strip training & kit distribution - Snack and Hygiene Product Distribution - Non-perishable snacks and water, hygiene kits and socks etc. Then later: "Each SHOW mobile clinic is outfitted to provide e-consultations..." etc. Then "Purpose Of Position": paragraph. Then "Essential Duties And Responsibilities": list of duties each starting with a verb, separated by semicolons? Actually each duty is a sentence, but they are separate lines? In text they are separate paragraphs each starting with a capital letter and ending with a period. Eg: "Conducts initial screenings and assessments of patients, and performs ongoing toxicology screenings..." then next sentence "Facilitates and/or co-facilitates individual, group, and family counseling..." etc. So we can treat each sentence as a list item. Thus we can create
    • for each duty. Similarly for Minimum Qualifications: there are several bullet-like statements: "Any individual working in a NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS)-Certified Treatment Program or newly-hired into the System in the title of Addiction Counselor in a NYC Health + Hospitals health care setting must have proof of completion of OASAS “Supporting Recovery with Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT)” training." Then "For Assignment to Level II Valid CASAC - Level 1 Certificate issued by OASAS; and one (1) year of full-time, progressively responsible experience performing SUD assessment, treatment planning, individual and group counseling, case and care management and other functions related to SUD prevention and treatment in a SUD treatment program; or Is otherwise considered a QHP, as described in “2” of Qualification Requirements for Level I above, and has one (1) year of full-time, progressively responsible experience performing SUD assessment, treatment planning, individual and group counseling, case and care management and other functions related to SUD prevention and treatment in a SUD treatment program; or Satisfactory equivalent of education, training, and experience. However, all must have a CASAC Level 1 Certificate issued by OASAS or meet the definition of a QHP as described in “2” above." Then notes about OASAS regulation etc. We could treat each distinct requirement as list items. Department Preferences: just a heading? Actually there is a heading "Department Preferences" but no content after? The text shows "Department Preferences How To Apply". Likely there is no content; we should not include a section if no real specific content. So we skip. How To Apply: we must drop application instructions. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications. We need to ensure we don't include empty sections. Now craft HTML. We'll start with

      About the role

      then

      marketing statement paragraphs combined? Could split into multiple

      for readability. Marketing statement text: "Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center is one of New York City’s premier acute care hospitals. Located in Downtown Bronx, Lincoln is a teaching hospital renowned for its Centers of Excellence, and a recognized industry leader in the implementation of state-of-the art medical technology and best practices. Our team of highly trained and caring medical professionals is dedicated to providing the highest quality health care that is safe, compassionate, culturally competent and patient-centered.

At Lincoln, the safety and comfort of our patients is our number one priority. At NYC Health + Hospitals, our mission is to deliver high quality care health services, without exception. Every employee takes a person-centered approach that exemplifies the ICARE values (Integrity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect, and Excellence) through empathic communication and partnerships between all persons." We'll put that in one or multiple

      . Probably one

      is fine. Now Responsibilities: We'll have

      Responsibilities

      . Then we can include a

      for the introductory description of SHOW program, then a

      for the list of services, then maybe another

      for e-consultations and roving team, then

      for purpose of position, then

      for essential duties. But we must not invent headings inside; we can just have multiple

      and

      . Let's extract the SHOW program description: "NYC Health + Hospitals (NYC H+H) Street Health Outreach and Wellness (SHOW) program utilizes mobile van units to provide health screenings, vaccinations, wound care, basic material necessities such as socks and bottled water, behavioral health and social service referral support, and harm reduction services to New Yorkers who are unsheltered. A further goal is to connect patients to NYC H+H facility-based clinics, where they can receive ongoing medical care, including primary and preventive care and treatment for physical, behavioral, or mental health needs." That's prose. Then "The SHOW Program Includes The Services Listed Below" then list. We'll create
      with items: - COVID-19 testing and vaccination - Additional vaccinations (e.g., TDAP, Hepatitis A, flu) - Wound care - Basic evaluation of symptoms or health concerns - Behavioral Health Support and Harm Reduction - Engagement and education around mental health questions or concerns - Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for substance use disorders - Harm reduction services, such as naloxone and Fentanyl test strip training & kit distribution - Snack and Hygiene Product Distribution - Non-perishable snacks and water, hygiene kits and socks etc. We could nest sublists but spec only says use
      • for any list; nested lists are okay. Then after list: "Each SHOW mobile clinic is outfitted to provide e-consultations with NYC H+H clinicians located at affiliated clinics. Each unit will also have a “roving team,” including a provider, social worker and addiction counselor, who will canvas the area surrounding the mobile unit to encourage individuals to visit the mobile clinic and/or provide services on-site to individuals who cannot come to the mobile unit." That's prose. Then "Purpose Of Position" paragraph: "The Addiction Counselor serves as an integral member of the multidisciplinary team and participates in and/or leads the development and implementation of clinically sound, culturally relevant, and medically monitored treatment programs, case management, care coordination and other supportive and consultative services for patients in Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment, in a sensitive and caring manner, and promotes the notion of recovery and self-sufficiency, as a goal of treatment. Ensures optimal utilization of resources and services and compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal rules and regulations and NYC Health + Hospitals standards of care to improve outcomes and the patient experience." That's prose. Then "Essential Duties And Responsibilities" heading then list of duties. We'll create
        with each duty as
        • . Let's list duties from text: 1. Conducts initial screenings and assessments of patients, and performs ongoing toxicology screenings to obtain pertinent information about SUD and Co-Occurring Disorder (COD) and develop psycho-social histories of patients to identify and isolate potential SUD and other specific patient problems; formulates appropriate diagnostic impressions; prepares accurate screening, intake, and assessment reports. 2. Facilitates and/or co-facilitates individual, group, and family counseling for patients admitted to a SUD treatment program, provides psycho-education, and conducts skills training classes. 3.
