Patient Specialist - Toledo, OH (1099 Contractor, Per Diem/On Call)
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions). The posting includes: description of company (Kestra team...), repeated paragraphs (duplicate). Then description of role: The ASSURE Patient Specialist (APS) conducts patient fitting activities... We have an opening in Toledo, OH. This is a paid per fitting position. Then ESSENTIAL DUTIES list. Then COMPETENCIES list (these could be Skills). Then REQUIREMENTS: Education/Experience Required: ... Preferred: ... Then WORK ENVIRONMENT, PHYSICAL DEMANDS, TRAVEL, OTHER DUTIES, then EEO statement (to remove). Also includes "Disclosure of personal NPI number (if applicable)" etc.
We need to map to sections: About the role (company overview), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (education/experience required), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (competencies), Benefits (maybe "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided"? That's a benefit? Also "paid per fitting position" is pay? Actually pay is per fitting; we have a Pay section only if posting actually states them. It says "This is a paid per fitting position." That's pay info but not specific amount. It's vague but still states it's paid per fitting. Should we include Pay section? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "paid per fitting position" and "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided". So we have some info about pay and schedule flexibility. However "competitive pay provided" is vague but still states pay. The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Here we have statements about pay (paid per fitting, competitive pay) and schedule flexibility. So we could include Pay and Schedule sections with that info. Benefits: maybe "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided" could be considered benefit. But we already have Pay and Schedule. Benefits could be left out if not specific. There's no explicit benefits like health insurance etc. So we may omit Benefits.
We need to avoid duplication: The company description appears twice; we should include only once.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them.
Let's extract sections:
About the role: company overview: "The Kestra team has over 400 years of experience in the external and internal cardiac medical device markets. The company was founded in 2014 by industry leaders inspired by the opportunity to unite modern wearable technologies with proven device therapies. Kestra’s solutions combine high quality and technical performance with a wearable design that provides the greatest regard for patient comfort and dignity. Innovating versatile new ways to deliver care, Kestra is helping patients and their care teams harmoniously monitor, manage, and protect life."
We should not repeat duplicate.
Responsibilities: Essential duties list (the bullet points). Also maybe the opening location and paid per fitting? That could be part of About the role or Responsibilities? Probably responsibilities.
Let's list duties:
- Act as a contractor ASSURE® Patient Specialist (APS) to fit and train local patients with a wearable defibrillator via training assignments dispatched from corporate headquarters.
- The APS will be trained and Certified as an ASSURE Patient Specialist by Kestra.

- Review and transmit essential paperwork with the patient to receive the Assure® garment and services
- Manage inventory of the Assure® system kits, garments, and electronic equipment used in fittings

Furthermore, information will only be released internally on a need-to-know basis. All Team Members will not discuss patient cases outside the office or with anyone not employed by this company unless they are directly involved with the patient’s case
We need to keep these as list items.
Competencies/Skills: list of competencies: Passion, Integrity, Collaboration/Teamwork, Action/Results, Innovation, Customer Focus, Emotional Intelligence, Highly organized, service and detail orientated, Passionate about the heart-failure space and a strong desire to make a difference, Strong interpersonal skills with communicating and assisting clinicians with providing care for patients, Interest and desire for life-long learning to continuously improve over time.
We could put these under Skills section as
- .
Requirements: Education/Experience Required: list items:
- 1 year in a paid patient care experience (not as a family care giver)
- Clinical or engineering background which may include but is not limited to nurses, cardiac device sales representatives, clinical engineers, catheterization lab technicians, physician assistants, or ECG technicians.
- Disclosure of personal NPI number (if applicable)

- Completion of online courses, i.e., HIPAA, Bloodborne Pathogens and Electrical/Fire Safety
Preferred: Knowledge of MS Office, Excel, PowerPoint, MS Teams; Direct cardiac patient care experience – RN, RT, CVIS, Paramedic, CRM.
We could put Preferred under Qualifications maybe. But we have sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The posting has REQUIREMENTS and Preferred. We could treat REQUIREMENTS as Requirements section, and Preferred as Qualifications section. Or we could combine. The instruction: 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.
Thus:
- Requirements: the required items.
- Qualifications: the preferred items.
Skills: the competencies list.
Pay: "This is a paid per fitting position." and "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided". We could put Pay section with that sentence.
Schedule: "Flexibility of work schedule" maybe also schedule. But we already used flexibility in Pay? Actually the phrase "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided" appears in duties list. Could split: Pay: competitive pay provided; Schedule: flexibility of work schedule. However the phrase lumps both. We could still separate: Pay: competitive pay provided (per fitting). Schedule: flexibility of work schedule (daytime, evening, weekend hours). But we also have "Ability to accept an assignment that could include daytime, evening, and weekend hours" under duties. That is schedule info. So we can put Schedule section with that.
Thus:
Pay: "This is a paid per fitting position. Competitive pay provided."
Schedule: "Ability to accept an assignment that could include daytime, evening, and weekend hours. Flexibility of work schedule."
But we need to avoid duplication: The duty list includes "Ability to accept an assignment that could include daytime, evening, and weekend hours." and "Flexibility of work schedule and competitive pay provided". We'll extract.
Now Benefits: maybe none specific; we can omit.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate: EEO statement at end should be removed. Also "OTHER DUTIES: This job description is not designed to cover..." maybe we should keep? It's substantive but maybe considered boilerplate? It's a generic statement about duties may change. It's not boilerplate like legal; it's part of job description. We could keep it under Responsibilities or OTHER DUTIES as a paragraph. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "OTHER DUTIES" paragraph is not exactly boilerplate but it's a generic disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate? It's typical but not explicitly listed. Safer to keep? The instruction says remove duplicated lines, not necessarily that. I'd keep it as a paragraph under Responsibilities maybe.
Also "WORK ENVIRONMENT", "PHYSICAL DEMANDS", "TRAVEL" are sections that could be included under Responsibilities or maybe as separate sections? The headings list does not include Work Environment, Physical Demands, Travel. So we should incorporate that info into appropriate sections (maybe Responsibilities). Since we only allowed those specific headings, we should embed those details within Responsibilities or maybe as a paragraph.
Thus we need to incorporate all substantive info: we have work environment, physical demands, travel. We'll include them as paragraphs under Responsibilities (or maybe as a separate section like "Working Conditions" but not allowed). So we will add them under Responsibilities as prose.
