My mom has a strict no-gifts-from-reps policy-- she won't even take a card, as far as I know. There's been one exception to this: At one point, a rep found out it was her birthday, and delivered a huge cake. To the unit. Of course, she wanted to refuse it-- but after they walked it all the way down the wing, how could she tell her staff that they weren't actually getting any cake? They are scumbags, for sure.
