      Check for any repeated content: We included unit description in About the role. Good. We didn't include Requirements section (maybe not needed). The instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We omitted Requirements because we didn't have specific separate requirements beyond qualifications. Could we treat Qualifications as Requirements? But we already have Qualifications. The instruction says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". We have content for Qualifications, so we include it. Requirements could be considered part of Qualifications; but we could also create a Requirements section with the same content? Better not to duplicate. We'll omit Requirements. Check for any boilerplate removed: We removed "Why Mercy?" heading but kept its content in Benefits. Good. Check for any invented detail: No. Check for any missing substantive info: The posting also mentions "Position Details Cardiac Med Intermediate Patient Care Tech 24 hours per week, Days Mercy
