Lead Direct Support Professional
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes Benefits, Role description (Lead Direct Support Professional Role), Requirements, Work Environment (maybe under Requirements or separate). There's no explicit Pay or Schedule. There's mention of Weekend Premium Rate (pay detail) - that's a pay detail: $1 per hour premium for weekend hours. So we could include a Pay section with that detail. Also there is mention of hiring bonus etc. That's benefits. So we can have Benefits section with list.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. The page already shows it, so we don't put a heading for Lead Direct Support Professional. But we can have a section "About the role" describing the role. The posting includes "Lead Direct Support Professional Role" description. So we can put that under About the role
with paragraphs.
Responsibilities: The role description includes many duties; we could extract responsibilities as a list. The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list responsibilities as
. Also requirements as list.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.
Let's parse the posting:
- Mission and Vision paragraph: "The Opportunity Tree Mission and Vision To provide quality individualized services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in dynamic and innovative environments. The Opportunity Tree is committed to promoting the development of a society that fully embraces individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities through inclusion, advocacy, and opportunities."
That's about the organization; could be placed under "About the role" or maybe a separate "About the organization". But instruction only gives examples of headings; we can use any heading that matches content. Could use "About the role" for role description, but mission/vision is more about organization. Could include under "About the role" as introductory paragraph.
- Benefits: list includes:
- $1,000 hiring bonus for full time new employee, paid after 12 full pay periods worked (approximately six months).
- 11 Paid Holidays (full and part-time employees; available immediately)
- Paid Time Off (Accrue up to 3 weeks of Annual Leave and 8 days of Sick Leave; full and part-time employees; eligible after 90 days; accrued bi-weekly)
- Health Insurance
- Vision Insurance
- Dental Insurance
- Life Insurance
- 401(k)
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP) (all employees including oncall)
- Employee Referral Bonus (refer a full or part-time employee to earn bonus after about three months)
- Weekend Premium Rate: Hours worked on the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) includes a $1 per hour premium!
We need to decide if Weekend Premium Rate goes under Benefits or Pay. It's a pay premium; could be under Pay. But we also have Benefits section; we could include it under Benefits as it's a compensation benefit. However instruction says create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections only if posting actually states them. It does state Weekend Premium Rate, which is pay-related. So we could create a Pay section with that detail. But we also have hiring bonus etc. Those are benefits. So we can have Benefits section (list of benefits) and Pay section (weekend premium). However we might also include hiring bonus under Benefits. That seems fine.
- Role description: "Lead Direct Support Professional-Residential supports and assists Members with developmental disabilities in developing/enhancing basic living and other life skills, promoting independence and individual choice. Supervision of the Members’ health, safety, and security to include assistance with Activities of Daily Living (eating, bathing, dressing, toileting, ambulation, and continence). Coordinates the instruction and supervision of the Members in appropriate basic activities of daily living skills and recreational events in accordance with the Person-Centered Plan.

Responsible for communicating progress and issues in a timely manner to the appropriate staff. Responsible for planning and maintaining Member’s and household accounts. Responsible to maintain all other records/paperwork and submit documentation per assigned timelines."
We can turn these into a list of responsibilities.
- Requirements: list includes:
- Minimum of 18 years of age.
- Current driver license with Non-Restricted Motor Vehicle Record and compliance with the requirements of The Opportunity Tree’s insurance carrier.
- Fluent in English, both in speech and in writing, to communicate our mission clearly and warmly.
- Experience: Preferred in the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) field.
- Education: High school diploma or GED.
- Knowledge: Beginner MS Outlook, MS Word, MS Excel, web browsing.
- Personal enthusiasm for providing services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
- Positive attitude and ability to represent The Opportunity Tree effectively in the community.
- Ability to work collaboratively as a team member with Members, staff, families, funders and stakeholders.
- Successful completion and maintenance of all required training which may include CPR, First Aid, and Prevention and Support.
- Successfully meets AZ-DPS requirements for Fingerprint Clearance Card.
- Reliable transportation and possible travel for The Opportunity Tree business.
- Skills include but are not limited to knowledge of principles in staff interaction, task productivity, time management, problem identification, and resolution administration.
We can separate Requirements and Skills? The instruction includes Skills heading. The posting mentions "Skills include but are not limited to knowledge of principles in staff interaction, task productivity, time management, problem identification, and resolution administration." That's a skill list. Could put under Skills heading. But we also have other requirements like experience, education, etc. Could put those under Requirements. We'll follow typical sections: Requirements (experience, education, etc.) and Skills (specific skill list). However the instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can have Requirements and Skills separate.
- Work Environment: includes physical demands: Lift, carry, transfer minimum of 40 pounds. Bend, kneel, and stoop. Push, pull wheelchairs. Reach, reach overhead. Sit, stand, walk for extended periods. Finger, hand and wrist dexterity to eye. This position is considered a “safety sensitive” position.
We could put under a heading "Work Environment" but not in the examples. However we could incorporate under Requirements or maybe a separate section. The instruction only gave examples but didn't forbid other headings? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings; but we could also use other headings if needed? Safer to stick to those. Work Environment could be placed under Requirements or maybe under Responsibilities? It's not exactly a responsibility. Could be under Requirements as a physical requirement. We'll include under Requirements as a bullet.
Thus sections:
- About the role (maybe include mission/vision and role description)
- Responsibilities (list of duties)
- Requirements (age, license, language, experience, education, knowledge, enthusiasm, attitude, teamwork, training, fingerprint, transportation, travel)
- Skills (staff interaction, task productivity, time management, problem identification, resolution administration)
- Benefits (list)
- Pay (weekend premium rate)
We should not include Schedule as not present.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Lead Direct Support Professional.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present.
We must preserve all substantive information. Ensure we don't lose any detail.
Let's craft HTML.
