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. So we can have About the role (job summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (qualifications). Could also have Skills if we want separate but we can embed within Requirements. Better to follow typical: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. No Job ID etc. No application instructions. No EEO etc.
We need to extract content.

Responsibilities
- ... each duty as li
We could split responsibilities into sub-sections? Not required. Just list all duties.
But we have many duties; we can group them maybe but still each as li.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we should not lose any.
Thus we need to include each bullet as li.
We also need to include Knowledge, Skills, Ability maybe under Requirements or separate Skills section. Since we have a Requirements section for qualifications, we could put Knowledge, Skills, Ability under Requirements as well, but they are not qualifications per se but abilities. However we can include them under Requirements as they are part of the posting. The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have Requirements and Skills separate. But we have both Qualifications and Skills content. Could do Requirements (for experience/licensing) and Skills (for knowledge, skills, ability). That seems appropriate.
Thus sections:
- About the role (job summary)
- Responsibilities (clinical practice, community contribution, safety)
- Requirements (experience, licensing, physical requirements)
- Skills (knowledge, skills, ability)
We must not create empty sections.
Let's craft.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "See, hear, talk..." etc is part of Other Physical Requirements, include under Requirements.
Now produce HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.
Let's construct.

Now Responsibilities list: combine all bullet points from Clinical Practice, Community Contribution/Customer Satisfaction, Safety.
We'll need to break each bullet into li.
Let's list them:
