So we should remove the equal opportunity employer paragraph, the tobacco-free environment, remote work states list, etc. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we keep location, shift, overview, responsibilities (patient care, admissions/discharge, safety, observe patients), education requirements, certifications, experience preferred, unit description, primary diagnosis, drips, keywords maybe not needed as section but could be part of Overview? Probably not needed as separate section. Benefits and Pay sections we have specific content. Schedule: we have shift: First (Days) full time day shift 7a-7p. So we can include Schedule section. We need to use headings:

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We should not repeat job title as heading. So we start with maybe

  About the role

  then a paragraph summarizing overview. Responsibilities: list duties: Provide patient care, support admissions and discharge process, comply with patient safety practices, observe patients' physical, mental, emotional conditions and report changes. Requirements: maybe education and certification? Could combine with Qualifications? The spec says we can have both Requirements and Qualifications sections. We need to decide what goes where. Usually Requirements: education, certification, experience. Qualifications: maybe preferred experience, etc. But we must not create empty sections. We have substantive content for both. We have Education: HS Grad or Equivalent, plus list of acceptable programs. Certifications: AHA BLS within 90 days. Experience: One year of health care experience preferred. Also maybe current student etc. We could put Requirements: Education and Certification. Qualifications: Preferred experience, etc. Skills: maybe list of skills like patient observation, safety practices, etc. Could be derived from responsibilities. But we need to avoid filler. We have some skills: observing patients' physical, mental, emotional conditions, reporting changes, supporting admissions/discharge, patient safety practices. Could list as Skills. Benefits: we have a list. Pay: we have base pay range and additional compensation. Schedule: we have shift details. We must not include sections like "About the role" if we don't have content? We have overview, so we can. We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual numbers. We must not repeat job title. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. Structure:
