for section headings. Use - for lists. Use
for prose. No job title heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Keep substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Job: Travel Certified Respiratory Therapy - NICU (but we don't repeat title)
- Location: Hoffman Estates, Illinois (maybe include in a paragraph)
- Specialty: Certified Respiratory Therapy - NICU
- Discipline: Allied Health Professional
- Start Date: 10/18/2026
- Duration: 13 weeks
- 36 hours per week
- Shift: 12 hours, nights
- Employment Type: Travel
- Assignment Overview: Shift: Nights, 3x12hrs; Hours: 36 hrs/wk; Start Date: Oct 18, 2026; Length: 13 weeks; Openings: 1
- Description: American Traveler is seeking a Level III NICU/PICU Respiratory Therapist for a night shift assignment requiring 2+ years of experience and AHA certifications.
- Details: Level III NICU and PICU respiratory care unit; May float to Adult ICU, ED, Med/Surg/Tele, and General Pediatrics; Night shift hours from 19:00-07:30; Every other weekend and holiday rotation required; 13-week assignment length
- Requirements: Minimum 2 years of respiratory therapy experience; BLS, PALS, ACLS, and NRP certifications required (must be AHA, NRP must be AHA/American Academy of Pediatrics); Current license and primary source verification required within 30 days prior to assignment start; License required if applicable; Must possess a US Social Security Number and provide a US home address; 2 professional references required; Copy of driver's license required; Full SS# and DOB required for consideration
- Additional Information: Provide respiratory care to critically ill neonatal and pediatric patients in a Level III NICU/PICU setting; May be required to float to adult and general pediatric units as needed; COVID-19 vaccination is not required; Local candidates accepted, though a radius rule applies that may affect pay rate for candidates living within the local area; Candidates should discuss assignment extension with their manager at least 45 days before the assignment end date
- Pay package: based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined.
- Benefits: American Traveler offers exceptional benefits, including premium medical, dental, vision and life insurance beginning day one of your assignment, generous 401(k) match, substantial housing stipends, and more. Additionally, with 24/7 support and access to our in-house clinicians, you are assured confidence and comfort throughout your assignment.
- Also mention: With over 25 years of experience... etc. That's boilerplate? Might be considered generic but includes benefits details. We need to keep benefits if specific. The paragraph about benefits includes premium medical, dental, vision and life insurance day one, generous 401(k) match, substantial housing stipends, 24/7 support, in-house clinicians. That's specific enough to keep as Benefits section.
- Pay: mention pay package based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. That's vague but still some info. Should we include Pay section? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state pay package based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. That's stating something about pay, albeit not specific amount. It's still stating pay package. So we can include Pay section with that sentence.
- Schedule: we have shift details: Nights, 3x12hrs, 36 hrs/wk, night shift hours 19:00-07:30, every other weekend and holiday rotation. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
- Benefits: we have specifics.
- Requirements: we have list.
- Responsibilities: we have description of duties: Provide respiratory care to critically ill neonatal and pediatric patients in a Level III NICU/PICU setting; May be required to float to adult and general pediatric units as needed. Also maybe the description about Level III NICU/PICU respiratory care unit, may float to Adult ICU, ED, Med/Surg/Tele, and General Pediatrics. That's responsibilities/duties.
- About the role: maybe we can combine description and details into About the role or Responsibilities. The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Also avoid Job ID etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details.
Let's structure:
Location: Hoffman Estates, Illinois.
maybe include location in a paragraph.
Then maybe About the role
with prose describing the assignment: Level III NICU/PICU Respiratory Therapist, night shift, 2+ years experience, AHA certifications, etc.
Then Responsibilities
with - items: Provide respiratory care to critically ill neonatal and pediatric patients in a Level III NICU/PICU setting; May be required to float to adult ICU, ED, Med/Surg/Tele, and General Pediatrics; Night shift hours 19:00-07:30; Every other weekend and holiday rotation required.
But note some of those are also in Details. We need to avoid duplication? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in the source; but we should not repeat same info unnecessarily? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid repeating the same sentence verbatim. We can combine.
Let's extract unique pieces:
- Level III NICU and PICU respiratory care unit.
- May float to Adult ICU, ED, Med/Surg/Tele, and General Pediatrics.
- Night shift hours from 19:00-07:30.
- Every other weekend and holiday rotation required.
- 13-week assignment length.
- 36 hours per week, 3x12hrs shifts.
- Start date Oct 18, 2026.
- Openings: 1.
- Minimum 2 years of respiratory therapy experience.
- BLS, PALS, ACLS, NRP certifications required (must be AHA, NRP must be AHA/American Academy of Pediatrics).
- Current license and primary source verification required within 30 days prior to assignment start.
- License required if applicable.
- Must possess a US Social Security Number and provide a US home address.
- 2 professional references required.
- Copy of driver's license required.
- Full SS# and DOB required for consideration.
- Provide respiratory care to critically ill neonatal and pediatric patients in a Level III NICU/PICU setting.
- May be required to float to adult and general pediatric units as needed.
- COVID-19 vaccination is not required.
- Local candidates accepted, though a radius rule applies that may affect pay rate for candidates living within the local area.
- Candidates should discuss assignment extension with their manager at least 45 days before the assignment end date.
- Pay package based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined.
- Benefits: premium medical, dental, vision and life insurance beginning day one; generous 401(k) match; substantial housing stipends; 24/7 support; access to in-house clinicians.
- Also mention American Traveler experience etc. That's more boilerplate but includes info about company; maybe we can include a short paragraph about American Traveler under "About the company" but not required headings. The instruction: we can include sections only when posting has real specific content. The company overview is generic but still specific to American Traveler. Might be considered boilerplate but it's describing the company. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This company description is not exactly those categories; it's more about the company. It might be okay to keep as a short paragraph under maybe "About American Traveler". However the allowed headings list does not include "About American Traveler". But we could use
About the role
to include that? Might be better to include a describing American Traveler after the job details, not as a heading. The instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings. It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should stick to those headings. So we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also Qualifications if distinct from Requirements. But we can combine.
We need to avoid empty sections.
