We also have Patient Contact age groups and Physical Requirements etc. Those are also substantive information. Should we include them? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include Patient Contact age groups and Physical Requirements, Ergonomic Risk Factors, Working Conditions, Reporting Relationship, etc. Those are also part of the posting. We need to decide where to put them. Could be under Requirements or a separate section like "Additional Requirements". But we have limited headings; we could add a section "Requirements" to include those as well. However we already used Requirements for education/license. Could combine.
Better: Have a section "Requirements" that includes all required items: education, licensure, certifications, patient contact age groups, physical requirements, etc. And then "Preferred Qualifications" for preferred items. And "Skills" for abilities.
But the instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can map:
- About the role: summary.
- Responsibilities: duties.
- Requirements: required education, licensure, certifications, patient contact age groups, physical requirements, working conditions, reporting relationship.
- Qualifications: preferred (PGY2, board cert, experience).
- Skills: required knowledge, skills and abilities.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: work schedule.
We must not include Benefits (none). Good.
Now we need to ensure we include all substantive info: Patient Contact age groups (list of checkboxes). Physical Requirements: Light Work - Lifting up to 20 pounds on an infrequent basis (less than one lift every three minutes and/or carrying up to 10 pounds, or requiring walking or standing to a significant degree (about six [6] hours a day). Ergonomic Risk Factors: Repetition: Repeating the same motion over and over again places stress on the muscles and tendons. The severity of risk depends on how often the action is repeated, the speed of the movement, the required force and muscles involved. Working Conditions: Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Risk: Category B - MAY have exposure to blood or body fluids. Reporting Relationship: Reports to Clinical Manager.
Also we have "Licenses & Certifications Required Pharmacist" maybe redundant with Maryland Pharmacist license.
We also have "Equal Opportunity Employer" etc which we must remove.
Now craft HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.
