B.  Hospitalization of an employee three days or longer,

C.  Death in employee's immediate family. Immediate family includes: spouse, parents, brothers, sisters       and children (including stepchildren).

• Gifts will be ordered for employees who have a birth or adoption of a child.  The gift will be sent to the employee’s home address. 
• For hospitalization of employees, a floral arrangement or plant will be sent to the hospital or employee’s home.
• A floral arrangement, plant or memorial contribution will be arranged for the death of an employee’s immediate family member.

Gifts for employees retiring and length of service awards are handled through annual awards dinners.Should departments desire to convey going away gifts or incur party-related expenses for separating employees, neither Longwood nor Foundation funds may be used to cover these types of items.
