We might also include location requirement? Could be part of About the role. Let's extract precise text. About the role paragraph: Combine intro about HWCLI, HEALI, SCN, lead entity, and role description. Original: "The Health and Welfare Council of Long Island (HWCLI) is a private, not for profit, health and human services planning, research/public education and advocacy organization that serves as the umbrella for public and non-profit agencies serving Long Island's poor and vulnerable individuals and families. The Health Empowerment Alliance of Long Island (HEALI) is Long Island’s Social Care Network (SCN) of community-based organizations (CBOs) and healthcare providers building a person centric model that integrates healthcare, social care, and behavioral health care. HWCLI is the lead entity for the HEALI Social Care Network. The SCN brings together social service and health care providers from across Nassau and Suffolk counties through identification, care coordination, integration, and provision of tailored funding to provide enhanced healthcare equity. JOB ANNOUNCEMENT: Community Health Worker HWCLI seeks an energetic, passionate, and socially conscious individual to support HWCLI’s mission by supporting the overall HWCLI’s expanded resource and service navigation responsibilities as the lead of the Social Care Network under the 1115 Medicaid Waiver. Reporting to the Director of Social Care and Navigation, the Community Health Worker position is a non-clinical role that will conduct health-related social needs screening, referral to appropriate services, and follow up with clients. Community Health Worker may directly help Medicaid members improve their health outcomes through resource linkages and follow- up. The Community Health Worker will document in Unite Us and any of the documentation system as required." We can condense but must preserve all substantive information. Not summarizing away detail. We need to keep all facts but can rephrase? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should not omit any details. We can keep sentences as is, maybe combine but not lose info. Let's produce a paragraph that includes all those sentences. We'll include: "The Health and Welfare Council of Long Island (HWCLI) is a private, not for profit, health and human services planning, research/public education and advocacy organization that serves as the umbrella for public and non-profit agencies serving Long Island's poor and vulnerable individuals and families. The Health Empowerment Alliance of Long Island (HEALI) is Long Island’s Social Care Network (SCN) of community-based organizations (CBOs) and healthcare providers building a person centric model that integrates healthcare, social care, and behavioral health care. HWCLI is the lead entity for the HEALI Social Care Network. The SCN brings together social service and health care providers from across Nassau and Suffolk counties through identification, care coordination, integration, and provision of tailored funding to provide enhanced healthcare equity. HWCLI seeks an energetic, passionate, and socially conscious individual to support HWCLI’s mission by supporting the overall HWCLI’s expanded resource and service navigation responsibilities as the lead of the Social Care Network under the 1115 Medicaid Waiver.

Community Health Worker may directly help Medicaid members improve their health outcomes through resource linkages and follow-up. The Community Health Worker will document in Unite Us and any of the documentation system as required." That's all. Now Responsibilities list: copy each bullet. List from "Responsibilities Include" onward: - Conduct screening and interviews with Medicaid members - Identification and verification of eligibility by utilization of appropriate screenings for clients - Verification of demographic information in the documentation platform and other program documentation systems - Confirmation of a client’s desire to receive social care services - Consent documentation - Outreach client by virtual, telephonic means or in-person in care setting to perform screenings, establish resource needs, connect to those resources, and follow up to determine if need is met - Utilize Unite Us to complete referrals and assist navigating to the appropriate health and social care services – either existing federal, state, or local social care infrastructures or social care services covered by the waiver - Develop care plan for clients based eligibility of services and identification of needs - Adhere to standards for completion of appropriate screenings with initial assessment screening and follow up screenings or surveys within set timeframes - Monitor status and progress of referrals of clients to ensure service is provided - Receive and process referrals from various sources related to health-related social needs (on platform and off-platform referrals) - Efficiently and effectively review all referral resources such as calls/emails/lists identified for assistance in a set timeframe - Identify barriers to referred services, intervene as necessary on behalf of the members - Provide support on challenging referrals - Provide information of access and coordination of resources - Provide culturally appropriate social care education and information - Meet monthly productivity and role expectations - Performs all other duties as assigned We need to ensure each bullet is aor drop it." It doesn't explicitly forbid duplicating content, but we should avoid redundancy. Better to keep salary in Pay and not repeat in Benefits. However the Benefits bullet list originally includes salary range; if we omit it, we are removing substantive information (the salary range) from Benefits section, but we still have it in Pay section, so overall we preserve it. That's acceptable. Thus Benefits list: - Employer-paid health insurance for single individuals - Retirement plan with Employer contribution after 1-year, flexible spending accounts, disability insurance, paid time-off - Opportunity to work in a dynamic environment on a new state-wide initiative to improve health equity Now Pay: Salary range: $50,000- $55,000/year. Now Schedule: Monday - Sunday, nights/weekends as needed. Hybrid work environment, ability to travel to office and local partners required. Also mention grant-funded position scheduled to end in March 2027? That's not schedule but could be included in About the role maybe. However schedule heading only if posting actually states schedule. It does state schedule. We can also include the grant-funded end date maybe in About the role or as a note. But we should not invent sections. Could add a sentence in About the role about grant-funded end date. That is substantive info: "This is a grant-funded position scheduled to end in March 2027." It appears near the end: "This is a grant-funded position scheduled to end in March 2027." We should preserve that. Where to put? Could be in About the role paragraph after responsibilities? Or we could add a separate note but no heading. Let's add it to
