"LOA" means "Leave of Absence." I still use my accrued vacation time, but it's either for one's own medical reasons or those of a family member (which is true in my case), or for educational reasons. AND - by law, the employer has to allow it--an issue at my place, where normally nurses can't take more than two weeks off at once, and only one person in my unit can take vacation at a time.
