Physical Therapist Full Time VNA
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: videos links? Those are maybe considered boilerplate? They are not essential job description; they are promotional videos. Should we remove? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Videos are not those; but they might be considered navigation? Probably we can keep them? They are not essential job info but they are part of description. However they are links to videos; maybe we should keep as they are substantive? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The videos are substantive? They are extra info about the agency. Might be considered part of job description but not essential. Safer to keep them? However they are links; we could include as
with links.
But we need to avoid duplication. There's repeated lines: "Lucia Auguiste, Director of Clinical Operations, MSN (why she came back, compensation, flexibility) Video link: https://bcove.video/44WYuGR" appears twice? Actually appears once then later "Lucia Auguiste, Director of Clinical Operations, MSN (Outpatient Homebased Therapy-Training) Video link: https://bcove.video/4o5dk5v". So not duplicate.
We'll include a section maybe "About the role" for summary paragraph. Then "Responsibilities" for essential functions (including non-essential?). Then "Requirements" for job requirements. Then maybe "Benefits" for benefits mentioned (support, training, benefits first day, tuition reimbursement, robust portfolio of benefits). Also mention full time, part time, per diem opportunities under Benefits or maybe under Schedule? But schedule not specified; we can mention opportunities under Benefits? Could be under "Benefits" as work schedule flexibility. But we should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does mention full time, part time, per diem opportunities, which is schedule info. That is specific content about schedule. So we could create a Schedule section with that info. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state schedule opportunities, so we can include Schedule section.
Similarly Benefits: they mention support, training, benefits on first day, tuition reimbursement, robust portfolio of benefits. That's specific enough for Benefits section.
Pay: not mentioned, so omit.
Now we need to format.
