IDD Direct Support Professional PT
- .
- Requirements/Qualifications: we have minimum qualifications (experience) and background checks. Could combine into Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include.
We have Pay: hourly pay and shift differential. So we can have Pay section.
Schedule: flexible part-time schedules. So Schedule section.
Benefits: The posting mentions "We offer flexible part-time schedules, competitive pay, and a team-focused environment". That's more about schedule and pay, not explicit benefits like health insurance. No explicit benefits listed. So we should not create Benefits section unless there is real specific content. There's no mention of health, retirement, etc. So omit Benefits.
Skills: Not explicitly listed. Could infer but we shouldn't invent. So omit Skills.
Qualifications: Could include minimum qualifications and background checks. We'll have a Qualifications section.
Requirements: Could also be used for experience. But we have Qualifications already; we could also have Requirements for the background checks? But better to combine into Qualifications. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule. That's five sections.
Check if any other section like "About the role" already covers the introductory paragraph. Good.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details. About the role paragraph: "Make a Difference Every Day Hampton-Newport News Community Services Board (H-NNCSB) is hiring Part-Time Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) to support adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) and mental health needs in our Intermediate Care Facility (ICF), Waiver, and Day Support programs. As a DSP, you'll provide person-centered direct care while helping individuals strengthen daily living skills, increase independence, participate in their communities, and work toward personal goals." We should keep that exactly. Responsibilities: list items: - Provide hands-on direct care and support based on each individual's needs and service plan. - Personal care - Hygiene - Activities of daily living - Meal preparation - Medication support - Household routines - Community outings - Recreational activities - Skill development - In our Intermediate Care Facility (ICF) settings, DSPs may provide total-care assistance, including using a Hoyer lift for safe transfers and mobility support. - Encourage independence and choice - Monitor individuals' health and well-being - Report changes as needed - Complete accurate documentation - Work with team members to maintain a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. We need to decide if some of these are separate list items. The original sentence: "Responsibilities may include personal care, hygiene, activities of daily living, meal preparation, medication support, household routines, community outings, recreational activities, and skill development." That's a list. Then separate sentences about ICF, encourage independence, monitor health, report changes, complete documentation, work with team. We can break into list items for each distinct responsibility. Provide hands-on direct care... could be first item. Then the list from the sentence as separate items. Then the ICF sentence as item. Then encourage independence... etc. We'll produce
- for each.
Qualifications: Minimum qualifications:
- Intermediate Care Facility (ICF): One year of direct care experience working with adults living with intellectual and developmental disabilities, mental illness, or experience working in an Intermediate Care Facility.
- Waiver and Day Support: One year of direct care experience working with adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities or mental illness.
Also background checks: The selected candidate must successfully pass a criminal history fingerprint background investigation, DMV record check, Child Registry search, drug screening test and employment reference checks.
We can include these as list items under Qualifications.
Pay: Hourly Pay: $18.17-$20.44 per hour. Shift Differential: Earn an additional $2.50 per hour for eligible evening, overnight, and weekend shifts.
We can put in
maybe combine. Schedule: Flexible part-time schedules available, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnights, and weekends. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Join Our Team" etc. That's somewhat promotional but could be considered part of About the role? Actually "Join Our Team" paragraph: "At H-NNCSB, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference while building connections with the individuals you support. We offer flexible part-time schedules, competitive pay, and a team-focused environment where your work helps adults achieve greater independence, choice, and community involvement." This is somewhat generic but still substantive. However we already have About the role covering role description. This paragraph is more about benefits/environment. Could be considered part of About the role or maybe we could add a section like "About the team" but not required. Since we prefer few sections, we could incorporate that into About the role as additional paragraph. But we must not invent headings. We can add another
under About the role? The instruction: Use
for prose. So we can have multiple
under a section. So we can keep About the role heading and then include two paragraphs: first the role description, second the Join Our Team paragraph. That preserves info. Now check for any other substantive info: "Apply today and bring your direct care experience to a team committed to quality, person-centered support." That's also part of Join Our Team? Actually it's after that. It's also promotional but we can include as part of About the role or maybe as separate paragraph. We'll include it as part of About the role. Now ensure we didn't repeat job title as heading. We didn't. Now output HTML. Structure:
