Nursing Station Clerk 1 (NY HELPS) - 90228
for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)
- Use - for lists,
for prose
- Do NOT repeat job title as heading (page already shows it)
- Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings
- Preserve ALL substantive information
- Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions)
- Include section ONLY when real, specific content exists — never emit heading with filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD")
- Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them
- Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones
- Output ONLY HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences
Now, parse the input:
The posting starts with "Description Duties Description" then a paragraph describing the role. That's "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The paragraph lists duties: screen communications, provide information, process physician orders, complete orders and requisitions, prepare and maintain medical records and logs, process diagnostic reports and correspondence, perform other miscellaneous clerical duties, checking par levels of supplies, ordering and receiving clerical supplies and equipment, stocking supplies. That's a list of duties. Could be under Responsibilities.
Then "Qualifications Minimum Qualifications" with two subsections: "Current New York State employee..." and "NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications" for Trainee and Clerk 1. Also "Preferred Qualifications". That's Requirements/Qualifications.
Then "Additional Comments" includes transfer info, salary range, benefits list, mission statement, accommodation contact, E-Verify, visa, salary details. Benefits are listed. Pay is mentioned: "above posted salary ($44,106 to $53,514) includes a downstate adjustment of $4,150." Also "For new State employees appointed to graded positions, the annual salary is the hiring rate (beginning of the Salary Range) of the position." So Pay section warranted.
Schedule? Not mentioned. No schedule info. So no Schedule section.
Benefits: listed in bullet points. Should include Benefits section.
Now, need to structure:
- About the role: maybe a brief intro paragraph? The first paragraph describes the role. Could be "About the role" with a paragraph summarizing. But the rules say use
for section headings like "About the role". The first paragraph is prose. Could put under "About the role" as
. Then Responsibilities as list.
But the first paragraph is a description of duties. Could be "Responsibilities" with list. However, the paragraph is prose. Could convert to list items. The rules: use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. The paragraph is a list of duties separated by commas. Could break into list items. But the rule says "use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". The paragraph is not a list but a sentence. Could keep as prose under "About the role" and then have a separate "Responsibilities" list? But the paragraph essentially lists responsibilities. Might be better to have "Responsibilities" as a list extracted from that paragraph.
Let's see: "The Nursing Station Clerk will be assigned to a nursing unit where there is daily contact with the residents. In this capacity, the Clerk will screen communications, provide information to nursing and clinical staff, process physician orders, complete orders and requisitions, prepare and maintain medical records and logs, process diagnostic reports and correspondence, and perform other miscellaneous clerical duties. The responsibilities also include checking par levels of supplies, ordering and receiving clerical supplies and equipment, and stocking supplies."
We can create a "Responsibilities" section with a list of each duty. That would be more structured. The first sentence is context. Could include as a paragraph before the list.
But the rule: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could combine "About the role" and "Responsibilities" into one section? The headings are predefined: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose which to include.
I think we should have:
- About the role: a brief paragraph describing the position (first sentence maybe).
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Qualifications: minimum and preferred qualifications.
- Benefits: list of benefits.
- Pay: salary range.
No Schedule, no Skills (not mentioned separately).
Now, need to remove boilerplate: "Additional Comments" includes transfer info, website link, accommodation contact, E-Verify, visa, salary details for new employees. Some of that is boilerplate (EEO, accommodation, visa). The rules: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The accommodation contact and E-Verify/visa are legal/EEO boilerplate. The transfer info and website might be specific to this posting? It's about transfer eligibility. Could be considered part of qualifications? But it's more administrative. The salary details about promotion salaries is also boilerplate. The mission statement is boilerplate. The link to mission is boilerplate. The "When reviewing qualifications, omissions and vagueness cannot be interpreted in the candidate’s favor." is boilerplate. "Candidates are responsible for providing accurate and clear descriptions..." boilerplate. "This position is part of the NYS HELPS program. No examination is required." That's specific to the program, maybe keep? But it's not a qualification per se. Could be a note. However, the rule says remove application instructions. The "If you require reasonable accommodation..." is application instruction. The "NYS Department of Health does not participate in E-Verify..." is legal boilerplate. The "For new State employees appointed to graded positions..." is salary administration boilerplate.
We should keep only substantive content: duties, qualifications, benefits, pay.
The benefits list is substantive. The pay range is substantive.

Pay
The posted salary range is $44,106 to $53,514, including a downstate adjustment of $4,150. For new State employees appointed to graded positions, the annual salary is the hiring rate (beginning of the Salary Range) of the position.
But note: The rule says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting states benefits and pay. So include.
Also, the "Additional Comments" includes "One contingent permanent, competitive full-time appointment or non-competitive full-time appointment via HELPS." That's about appointment type. Could be under Qualifications or a separate note. But maybe not needed. The rule says preserve ALL substantive information. That is substantive about the appointment type. Could include in Qualifications or a separate "Appointment" section? Not in predefined headings. Could fold into a paragraph under Qualifications.
Also "Transfer candidates may be asked for their Social Security Number to verify your transfer eligibility." That's procedural. Might be boilerplate. But it's specific to transfer. Could keep as a note.
The website link for transfer determinants: could be omitted as navigation.
The mission statement and link: boilerplate.
Accommodation contact: boilerplate.
E-Verify and visa: boilerplate.
Promotion salary calculation: boilerplate.
Thus, I'll include only the core sections.
Now, ensure no markdown code fences, just HTML fragment.
Also, note that the headings should be only. The subheadings like "Minimum Qualifications" could be but the rule says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid for subsections. But to be safe, maybe use for main sections and for subsections? The rule says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't say we cannot use other heading levels. But to keep simple, maybe use for each main section and use or for subheadings. However, the example includes "Qualifications" as a section heading. The posting has "Minimum Qualifications" and "NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications". Could be subsections under Qualifications. I'll use
for those, but the rule might expect only . The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't explicitly forbid other headings, but says "use for section headings". Could
