We need sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities (maybe tasks), Requirements (maybe experience/education), Qualifications (maybe certifications), Skills (maybe physical requirements?), Benefits (benefits), Pay (none given), Schedule (given: Part-Time, 16 hours/week Shift: 12 Hour Days (6:30a - 7:00p)). Pay not given, so we should not include Pay section. Schedule we have specifics. We must not include sections with placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. So we need to include details. Let's decide sections: - About the role: maybe the first paragraph describing role. - Responsibilities: could be the tasks: assists in individualized care, works cooperatively, performs designated clinical procedures and non-clinical support tasks. - Requirements: maybe experience/education? But we also have Qualifications section. Could combine? The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. We can map: About the role: general description (first paragraph). Responsibilities: list of duties (assists in individualized care, works cooperatively, performs designated clinical procedures and non-clinical support tasks). Could also include physical requirements? But physical requirements maybe under Skills or Requirements. Requirements: maybe experience and education required (none required, preferred experience, required education). Could also include certifications required. Qualifications: maybe preferred certifications and other qualifications. Skills: maybe physical requirements (push/pull/lift 50 lbs, standing, walking, grip, reach, bend, kneel, twist, squat). Benefits: benefits listed. Schedule: part-time 16 hours/week shift 12 hour days (6:30a-7:00p). Pay: not given, so omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, using

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

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. There's none except maybe the keyword list at end; that's not boilerplate but maybe considered metadata; we should include? It's not a section heading; maybe we can include as a

    with keywords? It's not explicitly required to keep but "Preserve ALL substantive information". The keyword list is substantive? It's like tags for search; could be considered metadata but still part of posting. I'd include it as a

    maybe under a generic section? But we have no heading for keywords. Could just add a

    at end. But we must not create sections with filler. So we will only create sections where we have content. Let's draft:

    About the role

    Under the direction of the RN or LPN, assists in the individualized care of the patient to achieve the patient's highest level of wellness. Works cooperatively with others as part of a team; recognizes the importance of group goals. Performs designated clinical procedures and non-clinical support tasks essential to providing care to the patient.

    Responsibilities

    • Assist in individualized patient care to promote highest level of wellness.
    • Work cooperatively as part of a team, recognizing group goals.
    • Perform designated clinical procedures.
    • Perform non-clinical support tasks essential to patient care.

    Requirements

    Experience: None required. If no previous experience, will be considered for Patient Care Associate (PCA) role, which includes a required 175‑hour training program meeting Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services requirements, completed within 90 days of hire.

    Preferred experience: EMT, Paramedic, or previous patient care experience (PCA, CNA, or active nursing student).

    Required education: High school diploma or G.E.D., CNA/CPCT, or enrollment in a healthcare career program through high school curriculum, or age 18 and able to participate in Mercy's UAP training program, or current Mercy co‑worker.

    Qualifications

    Required certifications: Basic Life Support (BLS) must be obtained within one month of hire; completion of PCT competencies within three months of hire.

    Preferred certifications: Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Advanced Unlicensed Assistant (AUA) in the state of practice, Certified Patient Care Technician (CPCT).

    Skills

    • Ability to push, pull, and/or lift 50 pounds on a regular basis.
    • Prolonged standing and walking each shift.
    • Ability to grip, reach, bend, kneel, twist, and squat to perform duties.

    Benefits

    • Medical, dental, and vision coverage.
    • Paid time off.
    • Tuition support.
    • Matched retirement plans (for team members working 32+ hours per pay period).

    Schedule

    Part‑time, 16 hours per week; 12‑hour day shifts (6:30 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.).

    We might also include the career ladder info and location/department/status. That is substantive. Where to put? Could be under About the role or a separate section like Position Details. But we don't have a heading for Position Details; we could incorporate into About the role or maybe a separate "Position Details" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings list includes those specific ones; we should not create other headings. So we need to fit location, department, status into existing sections. We could add a

    under About the role that includes location, department, status, shift info? But shift already in Schedule. Location/Department/Status could be in About the role. Let's adjust About the role to include: Position: Patient Care Technician-PCT (but we shouldn't repeat job title as heading; but we can mention it in prose). Location: Mercy Hospital Southeast, Cape Girardeau, MO. Department: Medical Telemetry. Status: Part-Time, 16 hours/week. Shift: 12 Hour Days (6:30a - 7:00p). However shift is also in Schedule; we might duplicate. Better to keep shift only in Schedule, and location/department/status in About the role. But note: Schedule section already includes shift; we might not need to repeat shift in About the role. So About the role: mention position title, location, department, status (part-time, 16 hrs/week). Also mention career ladder info: "This job profile/title may be updated along UAP Career ladder to offer candidate most appropriate role per their individual experience level if additional qualifications are met. UAP Career Ladder positions include Patient Care Associate-PCA, Patient Care Technician-PCT, and Nurse Technician-NT". That's substantive. Let's incorporate. Thus About the role paragraph could be long; but we can split into multiple

    if needed. The rule: use

    for prose. So we can have multiple

    under same heading? Probably okay. We'll produce:

    About the role

    Under the direction of the RN or LPN, assists in the individualized care of the patient to achieve the patient's highest level of wellness. Works cooperatively with others as part of a team; recognizes the importance of group goals. Performs designated clinical procedures and non-clinical support tasks essential to providing care to the patient.

    Position: Patient Care Technician‑PCT. Location: Mercy Hospital Southeast, Cape Girardeau, MO. Department: Medical Telemetry. Status: Part‑Time, 16 hours per week.

    This job profile/title may be updated along the UAP Career ladder to offer the candidate the most appropriate role based on individual experience level if additional qualifications are met. UAP Career Ladder positions include Patient Care Associate‑PCA, Patient Care Technician‑PCT, and Nurse Technician‑NT.

    Now Responsibilities as above. Requirements: we already have experience/education. Could also include "Will consider candidate experience once in offer stage." That's a minor note; we could include in Requirements as a sentence. Add: "Will consider candidate experience once in offer stage." Qualifications: we have certifications. Skills: physical requirements. Benefits: as above. Schedule: part-time 16 hours/week shift 12 hour days (6:30a - 7:00
