We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real content. Use for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to parse the posting.
We have summary: The Art Therapist/Expressive Arts Therapist reports to ... etc. That's about the role. So we can have
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to parse the posting.
We have summary: The Art Therapist/Expressive Arts Therapist reports to ... etc. That's about the role. So we can have About the role
with paragraph(s) containing that info.
Responsibilities: many bullet points: Evaluates patients, establishes treatment goals/outcomes, implements patient care plans. Observes precautions... Monitors progress... Provides written and verbal communication... Utilizes LifeChart... Maintains confidentiality... Effectively uses conventional art psychotherapy techniques... Provides a safe environment... Provides Art Therapy supervision... Communicates routinely with Senior Art Therapist... Therapist must demonstrate competency... Participates in mandatory departmental... Provides education and training... Educates other health care professionals... Reviews and reassesses program materials... Maintains and orders program materials and supplies. Oversees hospital art gallery... Develops relationships and coordinates services with organizations in the community for Healing Arts Program. Performs other duties as assigned. (duplicate line appears twice; we should include once.)
We need to put these as - items.
Requirements: maybe Minimum Qualifications section includes Basic Knowledge, Experience, Knowledge, Ability, Demonstrated knowledge... Could be Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have Minimum Qualifications: BASIC KNOWLEDGE: Master’s Degree... Registered Art Therapist (ATR) or REAT and Current license from State of Rhode Island required (LMHC, LMHC-A). Experience Two years relevant experience... Knowledge of principles... Ability to work with a wide array... Demonstrated knowledge and skills necessary... So these are qualifications/requirements. Could split into Requirements (experience, knowledge, ability) and Qualifications (education, certification). But we can combine into one section maybe Qualifications. However we need to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. We have content for Qualifications (education, licensure). Also we have content for Requirements (experience, knowledge, ability). Could make two sections: Requirements and Qualifications. Or we could put all under Qualifications. But better to separate: Requirements (Experience, Knowledge, Ability) and Qualifications (Education, Licensure). Let's see.
Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; we have "Ability to work with a wide array of visual arts/expressive arts mediums." That's a skill. Also "Effectively uses conventional art psychotherapy techniques..." That's skill. Could be Skills section. But we might not need separate Skills if we already have Requirements/Qualifications. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into Qualifications and Responsibilities and About the role. Pay: we have Pay Range $61,422.40-$101,337.60. So we should include Pay section. Schedule: we have Work Type M-F Days Work Shift Day Daily Hours 4 hours. So schedule info: M-F, Day shift, 4 hours daily. So we can include Schedule section.
Benefits: not mentioned. So omit Benefits.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO statement, location? Location could be part of About the role? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we could include in About the role paragraph or a short p. But we should preserve ALL substantive information; location is substantive? Might be considered metadata but still info. We'll include location in About the role paragraph.
We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So remove EEO Statement, location? Actually location is not boilerplate; it's substantive. We'll keep.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. So no heading for "Art Therapist/Expressive Arts Therapist". Good.
We must output ONLY the HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's craft:

Then Skills (maybe we could incorporate some skills but we already have ability etc. Could add a Skills section for specific techniques: but we already have many in responsibilities. Might be thin. Better to omit Skills section to avoid thin sections. However we have "Effectively uses conventional art psychotherapy techniques such as art therapy assessment tools, CBT techniques, and trauma‑informed art therapy techniques". That's a skill. Could be included in Responsibilities already. So we can skip Skills.

Schedule:

Monday–Friday, day shift, 4 hours per day.
We should not include Benefits section.
Check for duplicated lines: we removed duplicate "Develops relationships..." and "Performs other duties as assigned." only once.
Check for boilerplate: removed EEO statement, location we kept in About the role. Removed "Work Type M-F Days Work Shift Day Daily Hours 4 hours Driving Required No" we used schedule.
Check for any mention of "Driving Required No" - not needed.
Check for any mention of "Work Environment And Physical Requirements" - we omitted because not specific? It says "Work is performed in a hospital setting with significant exposure to patient care. Independent Action..." Might be considered responsibilities? Could be included in About the role or Responsibilities. But we have not included that. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include that info somewhere. The "Work Environment And Physical Requirements" includes: Work is performed in a hospital setting with significant exposure to patient care. Independent Action Performs independently within program policies and practices. Refers specific complex problems to director where clarification of program policies and procedures may be required. Supervisory Responsibility None. That's substantive. We should include it, perhaps in About the role or a separate section like "Work Environment". But we only have allowed headings list; we could put it under About the role or Responsibilities. Since it's about work environment, we could add a paragraph in About the role after the values. Or we could add a separate heading "Work Environment" but not in allowed list; better to fold into About the role.
Thus modify About the role paragraph to include that.
Also we have "Independent Action Performs independently within program policies and practices. Refers specific complex problems to director where clarification of program policies and procedures may be required. Supervisory Responsibility None." That's about independence and supervisory responsibility. Could be included in About the role.
Let's rewrite About the role to incorporate:
- Reporting lines.
- Role purpose.
- Values and Core Success Factors.
- Work environment: hospital setting, significant exposure to patient care, independent action, refers complex problems to director, no supervisory responsibility.
- Location.
We'll keep it concise but preserve all.
Now check for any other substantive info: "Maintains confidentiality of patient information." Already in responsibilities.
"Utilizes LifeChart to document significant clinical findings..." Already.
"Provides Art Therapy supervision to undergraduate and graduate students." Already.
"Communicates routinely with Senior Art Therapist?LMHC II" we have.
"Therapist must demonstrate competency in therapeutic process, as determined, by the clinical specialist, supervisor, or manager." Already.
"Participates in mandatory departmental, hospital-wide in-services, as well as obtain CEU's through external conferences to meet the standards and regulations of the AATA and NBCC credentialing boards." Already.
