We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe job summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Job Summary: first paragraph about VSA role. That's "About the role". Use
About the role
thenwith that summary. Responsibilities: list of essential responsibilities. Many bullet-like sentences. We'll create
- each responsibility. Must preserve all details.
We need to avoid duplication: there are repeated lines like "Sets-up and assists with minor surgical procedures of the eye, as needed, by setting up supplies, handling instruments, etc." appears twice. We should keep only one instance? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplicated lines: we could keep both? Might be considered duplication but they said remove duplicated lines. So we should deduplicate. We'll list each unique responsibility.
Let's extract responsibilities from text:
- Measures and records intraocular pressure (tonometry)
- neutralization of spectacles (lensometry)
- automated visual fields
- autorefraction (in preparation for the subjective refraction by the provider)
- autokeratometry
- anterior chamber angles
- vital signs and pupillary response and other objective ophthalmic testing procedures.
- Measures complete visual acuitys for all ages and ocular diagnoses, including Snellen charts, HOTV charts, color vision and stereopsis.
- Administers topical eye medications per specific physician order in preparation for testing as permitted by state law and regulation.
- Performs other objective ophthalmic testing and automated image capture, as indicated.
- Makes and cancels Optometry, Ophthalmology, medical clearances and diagnostic appointments.
- Obtains and prepares the appropriate medical information (records, files, forms, diagnostic results) for the provider.
- Records relevant medical information for the provider (i.e., assessments, plans, interventions, and spectacles) completes forms and other necessary data entry.
- Documents concise and relevant medical and ocular histories in the medical record Electronically, set up lab, x-ray and other requisitions, as needed.
- Labels specimen and Pathology Requests forms.
- Documents the specimens using departmental specific procedures.
- Sets up and assists with minor surgical procedures of the eye, as needed by setting up supplies, handling instruments, etc.
- Anticipate provider needs (preparation of supplies, instruments and equipment).
- Cleans (changing cleaning solutions, as needed), wraps, labels and re-stocks instruments.
- Maintains equipment and orders/stocks supplies.
- Orders and maintains inventory par levels of supplies, forms, medications, etc. as needed.
- Keeps work area clean.
- Sets-up and assists with minor surgical procedures of the eye, as needed, by setting up supplies, handling instruments, etc. (duplicate)
- Anticipates provider needs (preparation of supplies, instruments and equipment). (duplicate)
- Calls patients with messages from providers and documents disposition.
- Documents, updates and processes records relating to provider appointments.
- Performs surgical scheduling functions, as needed.
- Participates in training and orientation of new personnel.
- Performs other related duties as necessary.
We need to deduplicate duplicates: "Sets up and assists with minor surgical procedures..." appears twice; "Anticipate provider needs..." appears twice (one with capital A, one lower). We'll keep one each.
Also "Maintains equipment and orders/stocks supplies." and "Orders and maintains inventory par levels of supplies, forms, medications, etc. as needed." are similar but not identical; keep both.
Now Requirements: The posting has "Basic Qualifications:" and "Education", "License, Certification, Registration", "Additional Requirements". Also "Preferred Qualifications" includes location, schedule etc. But schedule and pay are separate sections.
We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have content for Requirements (basic qualifications, education, license, additional requirements). Qualifications maybe preferred qualifications? Skills maybe from "Must be proficient in ophthalmic procedures and testing as required by the employer. Must have knowledge of medical and ophthalmological terminology. Must successfully complete PARRS II, AutoReg (where applicable), and be able to work with electronic medical record system. Good verbal and written communication skills, including legible handwriting. Ability to read and comprehend simple instructions. Demonstrated ability to work effectively in teams required. Knowledge of computer and computer keyboard. Must be willing to work in a Labor Management Partnership environment." Those could be Skills.
Benefits: The posting mentions "Kaiser Permanente strives to offer a market competitive total rewards package and is committed to pay equity and transparency. The posted pay range is based on possible base salaries for the role and does not reflect the full value of our total rewards package." That's about pay, not benefits. No explicit benefits listed. So we should not create Benefits section unless specific content. There's no mention of health insurance, retirement, etc. So omit Benefits.
Pay: There is pay range: "$39.42 - $41.48 / hour". Also description about base pay determination. So we can include Pay section with that info.
Schedule: There is schedule info: "Primary Location: California,Pleasanton,Pleasanton Medical Offices South Scheduled Weekly Hours: 1 Shift: Day Workdays: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri *variable Working Hours Start: 08:30 AM Working Hours End: 05:00 PM Job Schedule: Call-in/On-Call Job Type: Standard Worker Location: Onsite Employee Status: Regular Employee Group/Union Affiliation: A01|SEIU|United Healthcare Workers West Job Level: Entry Level Department: Pleasanton Med Offices North - Ophthalmology - 0206 Travel: No Work Setting: Onsite Worker location must align with Kaiser Permanente's Authorized States policy."
We need to include Schedule section only if posting has real specific content. It does have schedule details. So we can include Schedule section with those details.
We also have Location info; but location is not a heading we have; we could include location within Schedule or maybe About the role? But we have no heading for location. Could include location in Schedule or maybe in About the role? The instruction: Use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should put location details under Schedule or maybe About the role? Probably Schedule includes work hours, shift, etc. Location could be part of Schedule or maybe we could add a separate section but not allowed. We'll include location details within Schedule paragraph.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Remove those lines.
Now craft HTML.
We'll start with
About the role
... summary ...
Then Responsibilities:Responsibilities
- ... each
Requirements
- ... maybe combine education, license, etc as list items.
Qualifications
with preferred qualifications: location, schedule? Actually schedule is separate. Preferred qualifications include location, schedule? The posting includes "Preferred Qualifications Primary Location: California,Pleasanton,Pleasanton Medical Offices South Scheduled Weekly Hours: 1 Shift: Day Workdays: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri *variable Working Hours Start: 08:30 AM Working Hours End: 05:00 PM Job Schedule: Call-in/On-Call Job Type: Standard Worker Location: Onsite Employee Status: Regular Employee Group/Union Affiliation: A01|SEIU|United Healthcare Workers West Job Level: Entry Level Department: Pleasanton Med Offices North - Ophthalmology - 0206". That's actually more like job details, not preferred qualifications. But we can treat as Qualifications section? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does have "Preferred Qualifications" heading but content is location/schedule etc. We could put that under Qualifications. However we already have Schedule section for schedule details. Might be redundant. Better to put location and employment details under Qualifications? But we have no heading for location. Could put location in Qualifications as a list item. But we also have Schedule section for hours etc. So we can split: Qualifications includes preferred qualifications like location, department, union affiliation, job level, etc. Schedule includes hours, shift, workdays, call-in/on-call, etc. Let's extract: Preferred Qualifications content: "Primary Location: California,Pleasanton,Pleasanton Medical Offices South Scheduled Weekly Hours: 1 Shift: Day Workdays: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri *variable Working Hours Start: 08:30 AM Working Hours End: 05:00 PM Job Schedule: Call-in/On-Call Job Type: Standard Worker Location: Onsite Employee Status: Regular Employee Group/Union Affiliation: A01|SEIU|United Healthcare Workers West Job Level: Entry Level Department: Pleasanton Med Offices North - Ophthalmology - 0206" That's a mix. We'll separate: Qualifications (preferred): Primary Location, Department, Job Level, Employee Status, Group/Union Affiliation, Location (Onsite), Job Type (Standard Worker). We'll list those. Schedule: Scheduled Weekly Hours, Shift, Workdays, Working Hours Start/End, Job Schedule (Call-in/On-Call). Also maybe note variable. Now Pay: Pay range and note about base pay determination. Now Skills: list of skill requirements. Now we must not include Benefits section. Now produce HTML. Let's craft. About the role paragraph: combine first two sentences: "A Vision Services Assistant (V.S.A). is a member of the Eye Services team, providing direct support to the providers (Ophthalmologists and optometrists) and the Eye Services operation, while working under the direct supervision of the Chief of Ophthalmology or designee(s). The V.S.A.s primary role will be to enhance to provider interactions with their customers utilizing specific knowledge, objective ophthalmic testing and practicing special technical skills in the Eye Services specialty. The VSA will maximize opportunities for flexible operations within vision services by assisting with provider visits as well as supporting department operations with clerical services (e.g., making appointments, scheduling surgical procedures, taking messages, registering patients, etc.)." We'll keep as is. Now Responsibilities list: we need to ensure each liability is a separate - . We'll deduplicate. Let's list unique responsibilities: 1. Measures and records intraocular pressure (tonometry) 2. Neutralization of spectacles (lensometry) 3. Automated visual fields 4. Autorefraction (in preparation for the subjective refraction by the provider) 5. Autokeratometry 6. Anterior chamber angles 7. Vital signs and pupillary response and other objective ophthalmic testing procedures. 8. Measures complete visual acuity for all ages and ocular diagnoses, including Snellen charts, HOTV charts, color vision and stereopsis. 9. Administers topical eye medications per specific physician order in preparation for testing as permitted by state law and regulation. 10.
