          We need to produce HTML with

          ,

          ,
          • . Also preserve original content word-for-word, but we can replace
            with line breaks? The rule says no
            tags. So we must not include
            . We need to convert
            to something else? Probably we should just remove them and rely on

            for paragraphs. Since we cannot use
            , we must ensure that line breaks are represented by block elements. So we need to parse the text and replace
            with nothing, but ensure that sentences remain. Probably we just strip
            tags. Also we need to convert bullet points lines starting with • into

            • . Also there are sub-bullets with "o". Those should also be list items? Probably treat them as list items as well (maybe nested? but we cannot use nested
                because rule only says use
                • for list items. Could we have nested? It didn't forbid nesting. Safer to keep them as
                • as well. We also need to convert section headers like "ROLE SUMMARY", "KEY WORK OUTPUT AND ACCOUNTABILITIES", "Governance, quality and risk management", "Person centred care (Patient care)", "TRANSFORMATION OF OUR SOCIETY", "Teamwork", "Personal and professional development", "Build and maintain stakeholder relationships", "SKILLS PROFILE", "EDUCATION", "WORK EXPERIENCE", "PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS", "WORKING CONDITIONS". These appear as tags. We should wrap them in

                  . Also there is "Essential" and "Preferred" which are not section headers but maybe part of list? They appear before bullet lists. We could keep them as plain text within

                  or maybe as ? But rule says only use

                  ,

                  ,
                  • . It didn't forbid other tags like or . It says use

                    for introductory paragraphs and general text,

                    for section headers,
                    • for list items. It doesn't say we cannot use other tags, but to be safe we could keep as is, but that would be extra tags not specified. However the instruction: "Use

                      for introductory paragraphs and general text. Use

                      for section headers ... Use
                      • for list items". It doesn't explicitly forbid other tags, but likely they want only those tags. However they also said "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". If we remove tags, we are removing content (the tags). That would violate preserving original content word-for-word. So we must keep the tags as they are. But then we would have tags other than allowed. The rule about using only those tags may be about structuring, but we can still keep inside

                        or

                        . For section headers we could wrap the text in

                        but keep the inside? Eg

                        ROLE SUMMARY

                        . That preserves the tag. Similarly for list items we could keep inside
                      • if any. Thus final HTML will contain

                        ,

                        ,
                          ,
                        • , and also tags inside them. Also there are

                          tags with inline styles; we must remove inline styles because rule says no inline styles. So we need to strip style attributes from

                          . Also there are

                          which we must remove style attribute. Also there are empty

                          tags; we can keep them? They are original content; removing them would be removing content. But they are empty; maybe we can keep them as

                          . However they might be considered unnecessary but preserving original content word-for-word would require them. However they also said no
                          s, no
                          tags, but empty

                          is okay. We'll keep them. We also need to remove any navigation, sharing etc. There's none. Now we need to produce final HTML. Let's reconstruct the content step by step. Start with initial paragraphs:

                          We provide meaningful careers that connect people with purpose.

                          We are united by a common purpose of providing the best and safest care; and by our shared values of Care, Truth, Participation, Compassion and Dignity.

                          Netcare invites you to be part of our journey.

                          Then we have "ROLE SUMMARY

                          " followed by paragraph. We need to treat "ROLE SUMMARY" as a section header. So we should output

                          ROLE SUMMARY

                          (maybe keep inside? The original had "ROLE SUMMARY

                          " without . Actually the text shows "ROLE SUMMARY

                          " plain. Later there is

                          ROLE SUMMARY

                          . So there are two instances. We need to preserve all content. So we should keep the original "ROLE SUMMARY

                          " as is? But we cannot have
                          . We could replace

                          with nothing but that would remove content. However we could keep the
                          tags? Rule says no
                          tags. So we must remove them, but that would be removing content. This is a conflict. The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. But also says no
                          tags. Which takes precedence? Usually the latter about formatting overrides; we must obey the formatting rules, even if it means removing
                          tags. The instruction: "Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." and earlier: "Use

                          for introductory paragraphs and general text. Use

                          for section headers ... No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
                          s, no
                          tags". So we must not include
                          . Therefore we must remove them, even though it changes content. Likely they expect us to strip
                          and treat as paragraph breaks. Thus we will remove
                          tags. Similarly there are
                          inside

                          tags later (like


                          CONSISTENCY OF CARE

                          ). We'll remove those
                          tags. Now we need to convert bullet points. Let's extract the main sections after the initial fluff. After the initial paragraphs, we have: ROLE SUMMARY

                          The Auxiliary Nurse will be responsible for basic nursing care of a patient or group of patients and will provide care as determined and delegated by a nurse with at least three years of nursing education and training and will be supervised where there is no prescribed plan of care or set standards.
