Respiratory Care Intern - UPMC McKeesport

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro: "UPMC McKeesport is currently hiring a casual Respiratory Care Intern to join our team! ..." This is about the role. Could be "About the role". We'll put that as

About the role

with

containing description. - Then "Purpose: Respiratory Care Interns (students) will develop the ability to gain additional clinical experience and knowledge prior to the completion of their education in a CoARC approved Respiratory Care program and their subsequent credentialing as a licensed RCP. The Intern will be under the direct supervision of the Educational Coordinator, Respiratory Supervisor or their designee. The Intern will be assigned to a RCP at all times. The procedures that an Intern can perform while assigned to a RCP will be outlined below." This is also about the role/purpose. Could be part of About the role. - Then "Responsible for the administration of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities of Respiratory Care in the general medical/surgical units observing all necessary precautions during therapy in order to prevent any adverse effects from occurring. Responsible for the care of equipment, economical use of supplies and utilities and cleanliness in the department and work areas." This seems like responsibilities. - Then "Responsibilities:" followed by a long list of duties. So we need a

Responsibilities

with

• each bullet. - Then after responsibilities list, we have "Currently enrolled in a CoARC approved school of Respiratory Care. The intern must have completed one semester of clinical rotations at a CoARC approved school of Respiratory Care. Licensure, Certifications, and Clearances: Basic Life Support (BLS) OR Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Act 34 UPMC is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Disability/Veteran". This is qualifications/requirements. Could be

  Requirements

  or

  Qualifications

  . We'll choose Requirements. - Also earlier: "This role will be scheduled for rotating shifts and have weekend and holiday responsibility. The role will have flexible hours with the ability to work around school schedules." That's schedule info. So we can include a

  Schedule

  with

  describing rotating shifts, weekend/holiday, flexible hours. - Pay/Benefits: Not mentioned. So we omit those sections. - Skills: Not explicit separate list; but responsibilities include many skills. Could we create Skills section? Probably not needed; we can incorporate into responsibilities. - About the role: we have introductory paragraph and purpose. We'll combine. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO line maybe we can drop? It says "UPMC is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Disability/Veteran". That's boilerplate; we should remove. Also "Act 34" maybe part of clearances; we keep that as part of requirements. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all responsibilities bullets exactly as given (maybe we need to split into separate

• items). The responsibilities list is a long paragraph with many items separated by line breaks? In the text, after "Responsibilities:" there is a list separated by line breaks but not bullet points. We need to convert each line into
• . Let's extract each responsibility line. The text after "Responsibilities:": Participate in clinical research projects as required Maintain accurate records as required by department standards Communicate with all other healthcare personnel regarding the care of the patient Perform chest physiotherapy according to department standards Assist in the transport of patients requiring respiratory support Administer therapeutic gases such as oxygen as prescribed or according to departmental procedures The intern must demonstrate the knowledge and skills necessary to provide care appropriate to the area of the patients served and know the principles of growth and development over their lifespan. Perform flutter valve therapy according to department standards Document interactions with and care given to the patient in the medical record and/or hospital information system Perform arterial punctures (radial and brachial arteries only) and analyze samples maintaining asepsis and quality as per department standards Personal cleanliness and courtesy is a must at all times. Administer IPPB therapy as prescribed or according to departmental procedures Perform simple bedside pulmonary function testing and calculation The intern must possess the ability to assess and interpret patient data needed to identify each patient's requirements related to his or her age specific needs. Transport and change respiratory equipment on the general patient units throughout the hospital and maintain associated records in an organized and legible manner. Clean, disinfect and/or sterilize all respiratory equipment Complete all mandatory and hospital competencies Exhibit and practice service excellence by actively seeking, listening and responding to the needs of patients, their family, physicians, staff and others Administer BiPAP/CPAP as prescribed or according to department policy/procedure Utilize Customer Relations principles Prepare and administer humidification and nebulization therapy under controlled temperature and saturation levels Perform evaluation of therapy objectives to determine the patient's needs Provide equipment for the therapy mentioned above and perform minor repairs, maintenance and calibration as per department standards Participate in cardiopulmonary resuscitation to include the establishment of an airway, ventilatory support and external cardiac massage Perform incentive spirometry according to department standards Perform PEP therapy according to department standards Prepare and administer aerosolized drugs and drug mixtures as prescribed (i.e. bronchodilator, antibiotics, antibacterials, wetting agents, enzymes, steroids, etc.) Must be familiar with and follow the hospital and department policies and procedures Attend and participate in department meetings, conferences and inservices as able upgrading your knowledge of respiratory and/or related fields to a level as acceptable as department standard Ensure that all patient charges are entered daily Perform resting, titration, exercise and nocturnal oximetry studies Replace oxygen and other compressed gas cylinders used for the respiratory care of patients and monitor and change the compressed gas cylinder banks when indicated Disassemble and prepare respiratory equipment for cleaning, disinfection and/or sterilization We need to keep each as separate
• . Some lines are long sentences; we keep them. Now the "Requirements" section: Currently enrolled in a CoARC approved school of Respiratory Care. The intern must have completed one semester of clinical rotations at a CoARC approved school of Respiratory Care. Licensure, Certifications, and Clearances: Basic Life Support (BLS) OR Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Act 34 We should keep that as

  maybe with

  for licensure? But it's not a list; we can just put in

  . Now "Schedule": "This role will be scheduled for rotating shifts and have weekend and holiday responsibility. The role will have flexible hours with the ability to work around school schedules." We'll put in

  . Now "About the role": combine introductory paragraphs and purpose. Intro: "UPMC McKeesport is currently hiring a casual Respiratory Care Intern to join our team! Are you interested in getting your healthcare career started? Are you a Respiratory Therapist student looking to gain more experience and expand your knowledge? Would you love the opportunity to work at a world-renowned medical center with an up-beat environment to help determine the next steps for your career? UPMC might be the perfect place for you! UPMC McKeesport is currently hiring a Respiratory Care Intern to help support our team." Purpose: "Respiratory Care Interns (students) will develop the ability to gain additional clinical experience and knowledge prior to the completion of their education in a CoARC approved Respiratory Care program and their subsequent credentialing as a licensed RCP. The Intern will be under the direct supervision of the Educational Coordinator, Respiratory Supervisor or their designee. The Intern will be assigned to a RCP at all times. The procedures that an Intern can perform while assigned to a RCP will be outlined below." Also there is a sentence: "Responsible for the administration of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities of Respiratory Care in the general medical/surgical units observing all necessary precautions during therapy in order to prevent any adverse effects from occurring. Responsible for the care of equipment, economical use of supplies and utilities and cleanliness in the department and work areas." This could be part of About the role or responsibilities. Since we have Responsibilities section, we could keep that as part of responsibilities. But it's before the Responsibilities heading. Might be considered part of responsibilities. We'll include it in Responsibilities as first two items? However the responsibilities list already includes many items; we could add those two as separate

  • items before the list. But the instructions: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include those two sentences somewhere. Since we have a Responsibilities section, we can add them as
  • items. Thus Responsibilities
    will contain: - Responsible for the administration of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities of Respiratory Care in the general medical/surgical units observing all necessary precautions during therapy in order to prevent any adverse effects from occurring. - Responsible for the care of equipment, economical use of supplies and utilities and cleanliness in the department and work areas. - Then the list items from the "Responsibilities:" section. Now we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. The "Responsibilities:" heading is followed by the list; we already used that heading. So we will not repeat the heading inside the list. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:
