Regular sick leave, Paid Family and Medical Leave, or FMLA? Sometimes the relationship of the family member to you makes a difference too. More info is needed.

If you have an HR person at work I’d start with them.

Your HR is going to be the best contact. There’s too many unknowns. But maybe YES, in some form.

For example, my normal sick time states I can use it for me, spouse, or immediate family member. But after XX days they need more information and/or push me to apply for Paid Family or FMLA. One time? Sure. Weekly? Maybe adjust your work hours. On demand? Likely not.

Is there a reason you won’t ask HR? Or reference your handbook.
