for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings for sections. It doesn't say we cannot have other headings, but to follow the example. Safer to stick to those.
Thus we need to fit CAPE program info somewhere. Could be under Responsibilities as a bullet: "Participates in the CAPE program..." but we need to check if the text says incumbent participates. Actually later: "To apply for the next level, the CAPE nurse must meet the requirements of their current level. They must also meet the required years of nursing experience, degree, and certification to apply for the next level. In addition, nurses who are approved for levels 3, 4, 5, or 6 must complete and submit five competencies on an annual basis to maintain their current level." This is describing the program, not necessarily a duty. But we could still include as a bullet under Responsibilities: "Understands and participates in the CAPE clinical advancement program..." Might be considered adding interpretation. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can include that info as a bullet under Responsibilities even if not explicitly a duty, as it's still substantive info about the role. I'll do that.
Also we have "Physical Requirements" and "Working Environment". Not in allowed headings list but could be included under Requirements? Might be better to include under Requirements as additional bullets? But they are not qualifications. Could be under Responsibilities? Not really. Could be omitted? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot omit physical requirements and working environment. So we need to include them somewhere. Could create a section "Requirements" and include sub-bullets for physical requirements and working environment? But the heading "Requirements" is for minimum qualifications; we could still add extra bullets under that heading, but might be confusing. Perhaps better to create a section "Requirements" and then within that have subheadings? Not allowed to use other headings? Could use
for prose and
- for lists. We could add a
describing physical demands and working environment under Requirements section. That would preserve info. Similarly, we have "Additional Job Description Scheduled Weekly Hours: 36 Shift Night (United States of America) Exempt/Non-Exempt United States of America (Non-Exempt)" which we already covered in Schedule. Also we have "Company GRMC Garrett Regional Medical Center Cost Center 13 GRMC Nursing Medical Surgical 1 Address 251 N 4th Street Oakland Maryland". That's company info; could be included under About the role as a paragraph? Might be considered metadata; but we can include as a short
under About the role. We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Employer etc. Now craft HTML. Structure:
