Caring for someone in need can be difficult, but it can be made even more difficult if you also need to obtain a medical certificate for the time off you need to take care of your loved one. Carer’s leave covers both looking after someone in need and family emergencies. It can sometimes also be known as personal/carer’s leave.
According to the Fair Work Ombudsman website “Employees can take carer’s leave (paid or unpaid) if they need to look after an immediate family member or household member who is sick, injured or affected by an unexpected emergency.”
It is important to give your employer as much notice as possible of the need to take carer’s leave, and details around the possibility of doing some work from home, changing times of work etc are best discussed between you and your employer.

Online medical certificates are leave certificates issued on the basis of medical conditions reported by a patient to a doctor through a online form rather than in-person. An online medical certificate is issued once the form is reviewed, and reported medical conditions are accepted, by an accredited Australian doctor.
Hola Health Doctors cannot provide medical clearance certificates for any reason.
Medical certificates are legitimate legal documents. However, some employers may have specific rules in their sick/leave policy guidelines around specific requests for an in-person appointment to have occurred. Please check your employers personal leave policy guidelines.
Online Medical Certificates are legal documents that are reviewed and issued by Australian Health Practitioner Agency (AHPRA) accredited medical practitioners. Medical certificates can be issued based on medical conditions observed by the practitioner or reported by the patient.
