Dental Assistant/UKHC
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Job Title: Dental Assistant/UKHC (but we do not repeat job title as heading). We need to include other info like requisition number, department, location, grade level, salary range, type, time status, required education, required related experience, required license/certification, physical requirements, shift, job summary, skills/knowledge/abilities, preferred education/experience, deadline to apply, etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The "Deadline to Apply" maybe considered application instruction? It's a date; but it's not instructions to apply, just a deadline. Might keep as metadata.
We need to decide sections.
We have Salary Range: $17.50-27.31/hour. That's Pay info. So we can have a Pay section.
Schedule: "Shift Depends on operational needs of the assigned clinic, generally this is Monday – Friday, Day Shift". That's schedule info. So we can have Schedule section.
Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. There's a line "Our University Community We value the well-being..." but that's generic EEO/benefits? Not specific benefits like health insurance, retirement. So we should not create Benefits section unless specific. So omit.
Qualifications: Could combine Required Education, Required Related Experience, Required License/Registration/Certification, Physical Requirements? Usually Qualifications section includes education, experience, certifications. We'll put those under Qualifications.
Skills: The "Skills / Knowledge / Abilities" line: Radiography and Coronal Polishing; two-handed and four-handed dentistry; Also maybe "Does this position have supervisory responsibilities? No". That's not a skill. So we can put Skills section with those.
Responsibilities: The Job Summary includes responsibilities: preparing patients, assisting chairside, maintaining records, sterilizing instruments, setting up operatories, managing supplies, expanded care duties (coronal polishing, radiography), patient education, infection control, teamwork, adherence to policies, service excellence, care coordination. So we can put Responsibilities section.
About the role: Could be a brief overview; maybe we can use Job Summary as About the role? But we already have Responsibilities. The instructions: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have content for About the role? Could be a brief description of the role (maybe the first paragraph of Job Summary). But we already have Responsibilities covering duties. Could treat About the role as a short paragraph summarizing role purpose. The Job Summary already does that. We could split: About the role = brief purpose; Responsibilities = detailed duties. But we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can keep the Job Summary as About the role (since it's a summary) and then Responsibilities as a list of duties. However the Job Summary includes many duties; we could keep it as About the role and not duplicate. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot omit details. If we put Job Summary in About the role as prose, we keep all details. Then we might not need a separate Responsibilities section. But we could still have Responsibilities as a list derived from the same content; that would be duplicating. Better to have one section for duties/responsibilities. The instructions list possible headings; we can choose which to use. So we can have About the role (summary) and Responsibilities (list). But we must not repeat same info. Could split: About the role = first sentence: "The Dental Assistant supports the delivery of high-quality dental care by assisting dentists and ensuring patients have a positive experience throughout their visit." Responsibilities = rest of the summary broken into bullet list. That would preserve all info without duplication. Let's do that.
Now Qualifications: includes Required Education (HS), Required Related Experience (No experience required), Required License/Registration/Certification (BLS at time of hire, must obtain Coronal Polishing and Dental X-ray competencies within 6 months), Physical Requirements (regularly sitting, standing, walking, some pushing/pulling/lifting up to 10lbs, occasional up to 50lbs). Also maybe Preferred Education/Experience (previous experience preferred) could go under Qualifications as preferred.
We also have Deadline to Apply (10/04/2026). Could be placed in a short paragraph under a meta section? Not a standard heading. Could be placed under About the role as a note? Or we could create a small
for metadata like "Requisition Number: RE55953 | Location: Lexington, KY | Grade Level: 07 | Salary Range: $17.50-27.31/hour | Type: Staff Position | Time Status: Full-Time | Deadline to Apply: 10/04/2026". But the instruction says do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short
with that metadata. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. So we will omit the "Our University Community..." paragraph. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:
Requisition Number: RE55953 | Location: Lexington, KY | Grade Level: 07 | Salary Range: $17.50-27.31/hour | Type: Staff Position | Time Status: Full-Time | Deadline to Apply: 10/04/2026
ThenAbout the role
The Dental Assistant supports the delivery of high-quality dental care by assisting dentists and ensuring patients have a positive experience throughout their visit.
ThenResponsibilities
- with list items: preparing patients and treatment areas for procedures; assisting chairside during dental treatments; maintaining accurate patient records in Epic; sterilizing instruments; setting up operatories; managing supplies; performing expanded care duties including coronal polishing and radiography; providing patient education by explaining procedures, promoting oral hygiene practices, addressing patient questions with professionalism and empathy; contributing to smooth daily operation through teamwork, adherence to infection-control protocols, compliance with University and UK HealthCare policies; service excellence and care coordination requiring respectful communication, confidentiality, collaboration with colleagues to ensure efficient, compassionate, patient-centered care.
We need to ensure we capture all details from Job Summary.
Let's extract sentences:
"The Dental Assistant supports the delivery of high-quality dental care by assisting dentists and ensuring patients have a positive experience throughout their visit. This role involves preparing patients and treatment areas for procedures, assisting chairside during dental treatments, and maintaining accurate patient records in Epic. The Dental Assistant performs essential clinical tasks such as sterilizing instruments, setting up operatories, managing supplies, and providing expanded care duties, including coronal polishing and radiography. In addition to clinical responsibilities, this position plays a key role in patient education by explaining procedures, promoting oral hygiene practices, and addressing patient questions with professionalism and empathy. The Dental Assistant contributes to the smooth daily operation of the clinic through teamwork, adherence to infection-control protocols, and compliance with University and UK HealthCare policies. Service excellence and care coordination are integral parts of the role, requiring respectful communication, confidentiality, and collaboration with colleagues to ensure efficient, compassionate, and patient-centered care."
We'll break into bullet points accordingly.
Now Qualifications section: We'll include Required Education, Required Related Experience, Required License/Registration/Certification, Physical Requirements, Preferred Education/Experience.
We can format as
- with list items.
Required Education: HS (high school diploma or equivalent). The posting says "Required Education HS Click here for more information about equivalencies: https://hr.uky.edu/employment/working-uk/equivalencies". We'll just state "High school diploma or equivalent".
Required Related Experience: "No experience required."
Required License/Registration/Certification: "Basic Life Support (BLS) at time of hire through the American Heart Association (AHA); must obtain Coronal Polishing and Dental X-ray competencies within 6 months of hire."
Physical Requirements: "Regularly sitting, standing, walking, with some pushing, pulling, and/or lifting objects weighing up to 10lbs and occasional pushing, pulling, and/or lifting objects up to 50lbs."
Preferred Education/Experience: "Previous experience in dentistry or dental assistant roles preferred."
We could also include "Grade Level 07" but that's metadata already in the short p.
Now Skills section: "Radiography and Coronal Polishing; two-handed and four-handed dentistry". Also maybe "Does this position have supervisory responsibilities? No" - not a skill, but we could include as a note? Probably not needed. We'll just list the skills.
Now Pay section: we already included salary range in metadata p. But we could also have a Pay section with that info. The instruction says include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state salary range. So we could either put it in metadata p or in Pay section. Since we already have metadata p, we could still have Pay section with the same info, but that would duplicate. Better to put salary range in Pay section and keep metadata p for other info (requisition, location, grade, type, time status, deadline). Let's do that.
Thus:
Requisition Number: RE55953 | Location: Lexington, KY | Grade Level: 07 | Type: Staff Position | Time Status: Full-Time | Deadline to Apply: 10/04/2026
Pay
$17.50-27.31/hour
Schedule
Shift depends on operational needs of the assigned clinic, generally Monday – Friday, Day Shift.
Now we need to ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: The "Work Location Lexington, KY" included. The "Department Name MD100:DENTAL GROUP CLINICAL PRACTICE" - we omitted department. Should we include? It's substantive. Could fold into metadata p as well. Add Department: MD100:DENTAL GROUP CLINICAL PRACTICE. Also "Working Title Dental Assistant" - but we already have job title; we shouldn't repeat job title as heading but we could include working title in metadata? It's essentially same as job title. Might be redundant. Could include but not necessary. We'll include department. Thus metadata p: Requisition Number: RE55953 | Department: MD100:DENTAL GROUP CLINICAL PRACTICE | Location: Lexington, KY | Grade Level: 07 | Type: Staff Position | Time Status: Full-Time | Deadline to Apply: 10/04/2026 Now we have all. Check for any other info: "Required Education HS Click here for more information about equivalencies: https://hr.uky.edu/employment/working-uk/equivalencies" - we captured HS as high school diploma or equivalent. The link is not needed. "Required Related Experience No experience required." captured. "Required License/Registration/Certification Basic Life Support ( BLS ) at time of hire through the American Heart Association ( AHA ); must obtain Coronal Polishing and Dental X-ray competencies within 6 months of hire." captured.
