Practice closed: a paid holiday or a closure announced by management — nobody works.

Dr. Bennett out: Dr. Bennett is away — no surgeries or consults and the office is closed to patients, but it is not a paid holiday. Staff work an admin day if one is scheduled (regular pay); otherwise the day is PTO or unpaid. Her away dates are announced separately.

Practice open: normal schedule.
