There’s this case of a teacher who is undergoing a dialysis every week, since teachers doesn’t have a usual sick or vacation leave because of PVP can’t she be excused from school or what option can you advise because she will be deducted as absent every time she has her dialysis session. It’s a pity that the salary she will be receiving for that day will be deducted because it can help buy her medicine. Hope there’s other option for this case. Thanks
