Admissions Manager (RN/Registered Nurse) of Behavioral Health - (MGR - ADMISSIONS/PT ACCESS)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Responsibilities, Benefits, Qualifications maybe. Also maybe "About the role"? The posting includes description but not separate heading. We can include a short paragraph about the role? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to extract content for Responsibilities, Benefits, Qualifications. Possibly also "Skills"? Not separate. We'll include Responsibilities, Benefits, Qualifications. No Pay or Schedule as not specified. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, scam warnings, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to format responsibilities as

• items. The posting has many bullet-like sentences. We'll need to capture them as list items. Could group under subheadings? Not required; just list. We need to include Benefits: list from "Benefit Highlights for full-time positions:" items. Qualifications: list of qualifications. We need to ensure we don't include filler like "Performs Other Duties As Assigned/required By This Position." That's substantive? It's a generic line; maybe we can include as responsibility? It's part of responsibilities. Could include as list item. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we capture each unique responsibility. Let's extract responsibilities sections: From text: "Core Functions Lead and manage the behavioral health admissions process from initial inquiry through patient placement. Supervise admissions staff and ensure efficient, customer-focused service. Perform and oversee clinical admission assessments and triage decisions. Ensure admissions decisions align with medical necessity, level of care criteria, and organizational policy.

  We should not include any extra text. Ensure no markdown fences. Just HTML. Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed EEO, scam warnings, etc. Also removed "Who we are & where you can make a difference:" paragraph? That's substantive? It's about company description. Could be considered "About the role" or maybe not needed. The instruction says include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. That paragraph is about Horizon Health.
