Physical Therapist, Acute Care - Full Time
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. So we need sections only when there is real content. We have About the role (intro). Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (maybe combine required and preferred). Also Pay: they gave "Minimum rate of $92,144.00 Annually". That's pay info, so we need a Pay section. Benefits: they mention comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, paid leave, tuition reimbursement, retirement benefits. So Benefits section. Schedule: not mentioned. So omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. There's some text about pay transparency etc. That's part of Pay section? It includes details about compensation determination. We can include that in Pay section as prose. Also mention "The posted rate of pay in this job posting is a reasonable good faith estimate..." etc. That's pay info.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So include all details from responsibilities list, qualifications, etc.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each bullet.
Let's extract responsibilities list: It's a long paragraph with many duties separated by periods. We need to turn into
- items. The text: "Prepares for the evaluation in accordance with department policies/procedures and standards of practice including obtaining patient history, performing systems review exhibiting knowledge of patient diagnoses and researching unfamiliar diagnoses. Selects and administers tests and measures and performs systems review. Additionally, synthesizes evaluation results to formulate the diagnosis, goals, prognosis and plan of care.Establishes a plan of care based on examination and evaluation results which includes person centered goals and best practice. Collaborates with the interdisciplinary team, patient/clients and patient's/client's support system.Assesses and re-assesses need for modifications to plan of care and goals.Identifies need for consultations and/or refers the patient/client to another health care professional or health care services. Initiates and completes discharge plan. Provides patient/client instruction to inform, educate and/or train patients/clients and their support systems.Provides and selects interventions based on the PT's assessment of the client's current condition which can include but is not limited to: patient and client instruction; airway clearance techniques; prescription, application, and, as appropriate, fabrication or modification of assistive technologies; implementation of biophysical agents; therapeutic exercise; motor/functional training; integumentary repair and protection; manual therapy techniques; functional training in self-care, domestic life, community and work integration and reintegration.Collects and records patient care data that follows format and guidelines of the patient care service, regulatory agencies and third-party payers which reflects an understanding of reimbursement systems and their impact on patient care. This includes, but is not limited to, initial evaluation, daily notes, reassessments/progress reports, discharge plans and communication with interdisciplinary members of the team. Records daily billing and follows department guidelines for productivity, as well as adheres to insurance and state regulations on the billing of services rendered.Provides appropriate direction and supervision to other personnel as assigned.Lifts a minimum of 50 lbs., pushes and pulls a minimum of 50 lbs. and stands a minimum of 1 hour a day.Other duties and/or projects as assigned.Adheres to HMH Organizational competencies and standards of behavior."
We need to split into logical items. Could keep each sentence as a list item. Let's do that.
Qualifications: There's "Education, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities Required:" then list: Graduate of a CAPTE accredited Physical Therapy Program or equivalent. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Proficient computer skills that may include but are not limited to Microsoft Office and/or Google Suite platforms.
Then "Education, Knowledge, Skills And Abilities Preferred Minimum of 1 year of experience."
Then "Licenses And Certifications Required Physical Therapist License. BLS AHA Basic Health Care Life Support HCP Certification."
Then "Licenses And Certifications Preferred Specialty certifications."
We can combine into Qualifications section with subheadings? But only allowed headings are the given list; we cannot add custom headings like "Required" etc. Could just list all items in a single ul, but we need to preserve distinction? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. We can keep the text as prose within
maybe, but they said use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Qualifications is a list of requirements, so we should use ul.
We could split into required and preferred as separate lists but still under same heading? Could have two
under same heading. That's fine.
Pay section: include the minimum rate and the explanatory text about pay transparency.
Benefits section: list benefits.
Now produce HTML fragment.

We captured that.
We omitted the line "Job Duties The starting rate of pay is provided for informational purposes only and is not a guarantee of a specific offer."
