Re: Update on 1st Choice Vacation Requests

__

Menno Hospital Staff’s 1st Choice vacation requests have been processed, and your portal has been updated accordingly.

Please log into your GoldCare Employee Portal to check the status of your first choice vacation requests.

To view your submitted requests, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your Employee Portal on Goldcare.
2. Click on “Personal Information.”
   
3. Select “1st Choice Vac Requests”
   

Once in the “1st Choice Vac Requests” section, you’ll see all your submitted requests, both current and from previous years. Under the “Status” column, you’ll find whether your request has been approved or denied.

If your request is denied, it means we’ve reached the staffing limits for that period, and you’ll need to choose an alternative vacation time.

Important Note:
Please refer to your vacation balances listed on your pay stubs to check how many hours are available. Keep in mind that you may be entitled to more vacation hours than what’s currently reflected, as you accrue your full entitlement between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025.

It is your responsibility to monitor both the hours you’ve already booked and your available balance. This will help avoid unexpected issues, such as running out of vacation hours and needing additional LOAs.

Thank you,
Menno Hospital Staffing
