Who qualifies for leave? What types of leave are there?
Sick Leave: Housestaff in the amount of thirty (30)
calendar days within a year’s contract period.

vacation.
Educational Leave: Residents may be eligible for one
month of educational training leave.
The ACGME and other organizations provide
guidelines for individual programs detailing the
amount of time expected for a resident to
successfully complete their training in that
program.
Considerations when leave is taken:
Who will this leave effect in the training
program? Will this leave effect the resident’s
completion date?
Develop a “department leave procedure”
for your housestaff showing:
• Number of days they are allowed for
professional, personal days, or holidays
• How far in advance do you want this info
• How do you want them to report their leave
• To whom should they report their leave
Have the residents report to one person giving
them a written request for time off and the
purpose for the leave.
Have the Director approve this request.
Develop a method to track this leave (such as
an excel sheet) throughout the resident’s
entire residency.
Make this information available to others.
Submit the residents Housestaff Leave Request Form
to the GME office a minimum of 45 days in advance.
You will need to know the dates of the leave, reason
for leave and whether the residents has short-term
disability?
GME office ask coordinators to enter this leave into
