ABSTRACT
Sick leave, traditionally, has been for employees alone--a dissatisfying arrangement when the sick person is a family member, not the professional. But one hospital rewrote its rule, extending sick leave to include time off if a spouse or dependent child is ill. The staff likes the hospital's acknowledgment that professionals have important family obligations. Administrators like the high rate at which it's retaining valued personnel.
