Vigil Aide
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. So we won't put a heading for the title.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we don't have any.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties exactly as given? We can paraphrase? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should keep the details, not omit them. We can keep them as list items, maybe slightly rephrase but better to keep original phrasing. We'll copy the duties as list items.
Similarly for requirements: Education: High School Diploma or equivalent; Professional Experience: Must have a State Certified CHHA/CNA license; Experience in hospice or home health, preferred; No experience necessary but 1 year, preferred; Must be willing to travel; Must have a valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
We need to keep all that.
Benefits: Competitive Salaries, Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits, 401(k) Retirement Plan, Paid Time Off, Mileage Reimbursement, Opportunities to advance and grow your career, And More! We'll list them.
Pay: Competitive Salaries (maybe we can note that it's mentioned under Benefits as well but we still include Pay section). Could we avoid duplication? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; duplication is okay if it's in the original. But we could note that Pay section just repeats Competitive Salaries. It's okay.
Schedule: Mon-Thurs 10a-8:30pm.
Now About the role: we need to include the introductory paragraphs that describe the role, mission, etc. We'll combine into a paragraph or multiple paragraphs. Use
for prose.
We must remove EEO boilerplate: "Ascend Hospice is an Equal Opportunity Employer EEO/AA/M/F/DV #APPLOIAIDE". Remove that.
Also remove any duplicated lines: maybe there are duplicates like "Ascend Hospice - is part of the Ascend family of Healthcare Companies." We'll keep it once.
