PRN Registered Respiratory Therapist - Pediatric Pulmonology Clinic
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like "Associate's Degree Preferred- Bachelor's Degree" etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal, compliance, privacy, accommodation contact, etc. Also remove "Physical and Environmental Demands" maybe? That's substantive but not in our selected sections; but we could incorporate physical demands into Responsibilities or Schedule? It's about physical demands; maybe we could include under Responsibilities? But it's not a duty; it's a requirement. Could be part of Requirements (physical demands). However we already have Requirements for education/experience/certifications; we could add physical demands as part of Requirements (maybe as a list). But the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could add a subsection under Requirements for physical demands. But we need to keep all substantive info. If we omit physical demands entirely, we lose info. So we need to include it somewhere.
Where does physical demands belong? Could be under Requirements (as "Physical Requirements") or under a separate section like "Physical Demands". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put physical demands under Requirements (makes sense). Or under Skills? No.
Thus Requirements section will include education, experience, certifications, and physical demands.
Schedule section includes flexible work schedule.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Reasonable accommodations may be made..." That's part of EEO/accommodation; we should remove that. Also remove "This job description is a summary..." etc. Also remove "The above statements describe the general nature..." etc. Also remove "Remains knowledgeable on current federal, state and local laws..." maybe that's a responsibility (compliance). We kept that as part of responsibilities. Good.
Also remove "This employer maintains and complies with its Compliance & Privacy Program..." that's also responsibility/compliance; we could keep as part of responsibilities? It's about compliance program. Might be considered responsibility. We'll keep.
Remove "Physical and Environmental Demands" heading but we will incorporate its content into Requirements as physical demands.
Remove "Are you ready to make a difference? Apply Today!" etc. That's application instruction; remove.
Remove "Ochsner Health does not consider an individual an applicant..." etc. Remove.
Remove contact info for accommodation.
Remove duplicate EEO statements.
Now let's craft content.
About the role: Combine introductory paragraph and job description summary.
We need to keep all substantive info: "Exceptional care starts with exceptional people. For us, this is more than a job– it’s a calling. It’s waking up each day, looking for ways to make a difference with a compassionate, inclusive and talented team.
