I'd imagine it would be pretty nice to have some flexibility at work when it comes to that.
And if she has only she has only started her coming in at 9 last week, and has only done it for one day so far, don't you think you're jumping the gun on saying she "never" works the extra 30 mins?

I would imagine that any company would be fairly sympathetic to someone with a family member in the hospital. However I don't think that it would extend to taking time off every day for lets say 6 months.
At some point the person would probably be given the option of taking time off with a unpaid portion.
I think even bereavement leave in most benefits packages is only a few days.
