CNA/HHA Home Care

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description of role, responsibilities, qualifications, etc. We need headings for sections present: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities, Requirements/Qualifications, Skills? There's also "Compensation Range: $17-$22/hour based on experience" => Pay section. Also "CNA certification required for the role" => maybe Requirements. Also "Qualifications" section present. Also "Special Requirements" maybe part of Requirements. Also "Essential Functions/Physical Demands" could be a section but not listed as allowed heading; allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include Physical Demands under Requirements or maybe as part of Responsibilities? Probably better to include under Requirements (or maybe as a separate section not allowed). Since only allowed headings list, we should not create other headings. So we need to map content to allowed headings. We have: - About the role: description of role: "The VITAS CNA/Home Health Aide (HHA) is a non-exempt employee, who is trained to provide personal care and services to hospice patients to augment care given by family members or other caregivers." - Responsibilities: list of duties (assigned job responsibilities, other responsibilities). We'll put under

Responsibilities

with

• items. - Requirements: includes "CNA certification required for the role", "High School graduate or equivalent preferred.", qualifications details (42 CFR etc), "State Allowable Training/Certification" list, "Special Requirements" (ability to read/write, travel, telephone). Also "Essential Functions/Physical Demands" could be part of Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe separate but we have a Qualifications section already in posting. Could combine with Requirements? But we need to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. The posting has a "Qualifications" heading with content. So we should include

  Qualifications

  with that content. - Pay: we have compensation range => include

  Pay

  with

  $17-$22/hour based on experience

  . - Benefits: not mentioned; skip. - Schedule: not mentioned; skip. - Skills: not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer but better not to create unless content. So skip. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must preserve all substantive information. Need to include all details from posting. Let's extract details: About the role paragraph: "The VITAS CNA/Home Health Aide (HHA) is a non-exempt employee, who is trained to provide personal care and services to hospice patients to augment care given by family members or other caregivers." Responsibilities: Two parts: Assigned Job Responsibilities (list) and OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE HOME HEALTH AIDE (HHA) NOT INCLUDED IN A WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT MAY INCLUDE: (list). Also includes "Change sterile dressings..." etc under "The Home Health Aide (hha) May Not Be assigned by VITAS to any institutional setting." Actually that's a list of prohibited tasks. Should we include? It's part of responsibilities (what they may NOT do). Probably include as part of responsibilities (limitations). We'll include as bullet points under responsibilities maybe as "May not be assigned to..." but it's a restriction. We'll include as bullet. Let's capture all bullet points: Assigned Job Responsibilities: - Performs only those personal care activities contained in a written assignment. - Home Health Aide (HHA) helps the patient to maintain good personal hygiene. - Plans and prepare meals. - Feeds or assist with feeding the patient when needed. - Assists the patient ambulation. - Assists with certain treatments as ordered by the physician, and taught and supervised by the nurse for a specific patient including: - assist with the change of the colostomy bag; - assist with the use of a walker or wheelchair; - reinforcement of a dressing; - assist with prescribed range of motion exercises; - assist with prescribed ice cap or collar; - measure intake and output of fluids; - assist with medications that are ordinarily self-administered. - Reads and records temperature, pulse and respiration. OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES NOT INCLUDED IN A WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT MAY INCLUDE: - Assists in maintaining a safe and healthy environment. - Promotes the patient’s mental alertness through involvement in activities of interest. - Provides simple emotional and psychological support to the patient, family, and other caregivers. - Reports any changes in the patient’s mental or physical condition or home situation to the VITAS Nurse and members of the interdisciplinary team. - Teaches basic personal care to the primary caregiver. - Practices basic infection control measures. - Observes, reports, and documents patient status and the care and activities provided. - Completes at least 12 hours of in-service training per calendar year. - Handles other tasks as assigned. The Home Health Aide (hha) May Not Be assigned by VITAS to any institutional setting. - Change sterile dressings. - Irrigate body cavities (such as an enema). - Irrigate a colostomy or wound. - Perform a gastric lavage or gavage. - Catheterize a patient. - Administer medications. - Apply heat by any method. - Care for a tracheotomy tube. - Suction a patient. - Provide any personal care that has not been assigned by the VITAS nurse or included in the plan of care. We'll include these as bullet points under Responsibilities. Qualifications section content: "High School graduate or equivalent preferred.

Direction Received: "Home Health Aide (HHA) reports directly to the VITAS Nurse. Home Health Aide (HHA) receives clinical direction from the VITAS Nurse." We could include Direction Received under Responsibilities or maybe as part of Requirements? Probably under Responsibilities as it's about reporting. But we already have Responsibilities large; we could add a bullet: "Reports directly to the VITAS Nurse and receives clinical direction from the VITAS Nurse." Now Pay: "$17-$22/hour based on experience" Now we need to output HTML fragment with headings and content. We must not include any extra text outside HTML. Let's craft:
