We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. We need to parse the job posting. First, remove boilerplate: "If you are an existing employee of South Shore Health then please apply through the internal career site." That's application instruction, remove. Requisition Number, Facility, Department Name, Status, Budgeted Hours, Shift: these are metadata; we can fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Probably we can include a short paragraph with location and maybe shift. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract sections: - About the role: The description of Oncology Nurse Navigator (ONN) uses their oncology-specific clinical knowledge... etc. That's a prose description. Could be "About the role". - Responsibilities: The list of essential functions etc. There's a big list of responsibilities. We'll put under

Responsibilities

with
  • items. - Requirements: Minimum Education, Minimum Work Experience, Required Licenses / Registrations, Certifications, Required Classes/Skills, Required Additional Knowledge, And Abilities. Also maybe "Professional Development" could be part of qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements? But we need to decide sections. The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements and Qualifications separate if content fits. We have "Job Requirements" section with Minimum Education, Minimum Work Experience, Required Licenses / Registrations, Certifications, Required Classes/Skills, Required Additional Knowledge, And Abilities. Also "Professional Development" bullet list. We could treat "Requirements" as the mandatory items (education, experience, license, certifications, BLS/ACLS). And "Qualifications" as preferred items (BSN preferred, professional certification preferred, etc.) Or we could combine. But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see content: - Minimum Education: Graduate of an accredited School of Nursing as validated through the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing. Baccalaureate degree in nursing strongly preferred. If associate degree in nursing, must complete BSN degree within 4 years. - Minimum Work Experience: Minimum of 1-year recent experience as an RN Ambulatory And/or Oncology Experience Preferred. - Required Licenses / Registrations: RN - Registered Nurse - Certifications: Professional nursing certification preferred (OCN, BMTCN, CPHON, AOCNP, CRNI, RN-BC) - Required Classes/Skills: BLS - Basic Life Support; ACLS - Advanced Cardiac Life Support accepted as minimum requirement - Required Additional Knowledge, And Abilities: a long list of abilities. - Professional Development: Identifies areas for professional growth... etc. Thus we could have:

    About the role

    ... description ...

    Responsibilities

      list of essential functions ...

    Requirements

      list of mandatory items: education, experience, license, BLS/ACLS, maybe RN license.

    Qualifications

      list of preferred items: BSN preferred, professional certification preferred, etc. plus professional development? Could be separate. But we also have "Professional Development" which could be under Qualifications or a separate section like "Skills". However the instruction says we can use Skills heading for list of skills. The "Required Additional Knowledge, And Abilities" is essentially skills/abilities. Could be under Skills. Thus we could have: - About the role (description) - Responsibilities (essential functions) - Requirements (education, experience, license, certifications required? Actually certifications are preferred, not required. So maybe Requirements includes education, experience, RN license, BLS/ACLS.) - Qualifications (preferred: BSN, professional certification, etc.) - Skills (additional knowledge and abilities) - Pay (Compensation Pay Range $38.20 - $77.39) - Schedule (Days, Monday-Friday) maybe also Shift Day. We have also location info: Facility LOC0026 - 101 Columbian Street101 Columbian Street Weymouth, MA 02190. That seems duplicated. We'll include location in a short paragraph maybe under About the role or separate metadata. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can fold minor metadata into a short

      or drop it. So we can include a paragraph with location and shift. Let's extract the description paragraph: "The Oncology Nurse Navigator (ONN) uses their oncology-specific clinical knowledge to offer individualized assistance to patients, families and caregivers to help overcome healthcare system barriers. Using the nursing process, an ONN provides education and resources to facilitate informed decision making and timely access to quality health and psychosocial care throughout all phases of the cancer continuum. The ONN is responsible for routine nursing aspects of the Program, which include clinical care, telephone triage, symptom management, management of patients on oral chemotherapy, data gathering and chart updating, patient education, and monitoring and follow-up of patients." That's the About the role. Now Responsibilities: The list under "Essential Functions" and then many bullet-like sentences. We'll convert each sentence to

    • . Let's extract them: - Assumes nursing care responsibilities for a defined group of patients within the program, including but not limited to assessment, education, coordination, and documentation. - Facilitates individualized care within the context of functional status, cultural consideration, health literacy, psychosocial, reproductive/fertility, and spiritual needs for patients, families and caregivers. - Provides a welcoming, helpful approach to new DFCI patients, promotes positive, professional image. - Supports a smooth transition of patients from diagnosis and active treatment into survivorship, chronic cancer management, or end-of-life care. - Assists patients with cancer with issues related to treatment goals, advanced directives, palliative care, and end-of-life concerns using an ethical framework that is nonjudgmental and nondiscriminatory. - Acts as a liaison between the patients, families, and caregivers and the providers to optimize outcomes. - Advocates for patients to promote patient centered care that includes shared decision making and patient goals of care with optimal outcomes. - Provides psychosocial support to and facilitates appropriate referrals for patients, families and caregivers - Contributes to ONN program and role development, implementation, and evaluation within the healthcare system and community. - Participates in day-to-day operations of the satellite program. - Participates in the tracking and monitoring of metrics and outcomes, in collaboration with administration, to document and evaluate outcomes of the navigation program. - Functions as the primary nursing contact for care delivered within the satellite setting and collaborating nursing professionals. - Evaluates patient care in the program and collaborates with the other disciplines to facilitate appropriate clinical decision-making and to implement change when necessary. - Manages patient care across the continuum, making appropriate referrals, as necessary. - Works collaboratively and functions as an effective member of the health care team. - Monitors the environment of care with attention to patient safety and assures compliance with regulatory agency standards. - Maintains clinical practice that is evidence-based and consistent with nursing policies, procedures and standards. - Provides care based on age-specific needs of the patient (population served: young adult to geriatric) - Adheres to the Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements (ANA, 2015) in all aspects of professional practice. - Complies with accepted standards of professional nursing practice that is evidence- based and consistent with policy, and procedures determined by DFCI as well as with all licensure/registration requirements applicable to the nursing role. - Promotes a culture of inclusion. - Fosters an environment that is sensitive to the needs of diverse populations, including but not limited to culture, ethnicity, gender, and age. - Professional Development: Identifies areas for professional growth.

Pursues active membership in local and national professional organizations. Participates in program evaluation and development of strategic goals. Participates in the QA/QI projects for the program. That last paragraph is a bit long; we could split into multiple
    • items but it's okay as one. Now Requirements: Minimum Education, Minimum Work Experience, Required Licenses / Registrations, Required Classes/Skills (BLS, ACLS). Also maybe RN license is required. Let's list: - Graduate of an accredited School of Nursing as validated through the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing. - Baccalaureate degree in nursing strongly preferred (but that's preferred, not required). Actually it's "strongly preferred". So requirement is just graduation from accredited school. We'll keep that as requirement. - If associate degree in nursing, must complete BSN degree within 4 years (that's a requirement if ADN). - Minimum of 1-year recent experience as an RN Ambulatory And/or Oncology Experience Preferred (so requirement: 1-year recent RN experience; oncology/ambulatory preferred). - RN - Registered Nurse (license). - BLS - Basic Life Support (required). - ACLS - Advanced Cardiac Life Support accepted as minimum requirement (so ACLS also required? It says accepted as minimum requirement, meaning ACLS is acceptable as minimum; but BLS is required. We'll include both as required certifications.) Now Qualifications (preferred): - Baccalaureate degree in nursing strongly preferred. - Professional nursing certification preferred (OCN, BMTCN, CPHON, AOCNP, CRNI, RN-BC). - Oncology experience preferred (mentioned in work experience). - Possibly also "Professional Development" items? But those are more like expectations; could be under Qualifications or Skills. Now Skills (Additional Knowledge and Abilities): List them: - Demonstrated ability to work as an effective member of an interdisciplinary team. - Demonstrated skills in critical thinking, problem solving, and ability to make independent decisions. - Ability to function in a busy work setting with patients with complex needs. - Ability to put patients at ease while efficiently collecting data required by phone. - Demonstrated ability to build and foster relationships with teams across diverse settings. - Possess the ability to foster team relationships. - The Mission, Vision, and Core Values of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute are incorporated into all areas of practice. - Good hearing and vision is required for the time spent in interactions with others, telecommunications and the required reading of medical and pharmaceutical documents and patient care related documents. - Communications with physicians or staff during office hours requires organization of information, discretion and balancing of multiple communications. - Relationships with patients/families and colleagues requires excellent listening skills, the ability to identify issues and seek a resolution that reflects the quality care and satisfaction goals of the practice. - The work requires concentration and frequent mental and visual attention as well as the ability to work efficiently. - Frequent interruptions and movement away from desk require the ability to stay focused and return to uncompleted tasks. - Telephone communications listening and speaking skills are required for the time spent in this mode of communication. - The ability to balance multiple tasks and normal stress associated with the duties and responsibilities of this position are essential requirements in the performance of this job. - The ability to speak, read and write in English, and the ability to perform mathematical pharmaceutical calculations is required for this position. Also "Days, Monday-Friday" schedule. Now Pay: Compensation Pay Range $38.20 - $77.39 Now Schedule: Days, Monday-Friday (maybe also Shift Day). We'll include schedule. Now location: Facility LOC0026 - 101 Columbian Street101 Columbian Street Weymouth, MA 02190. There's duplication of address; we can clean: 101 Columbian Street, Weymouth, MA 02
