Gift Baskets from Patients?

Hi all! I sought out this subreddit specifically to ask this question, sorry if I’ve come to the wrong place.

I’m having a double mastectomy next month and am anticipating being in the hospital for a few days.
I put together a new cosmetics lay flat bag of chocolate and stickers and skincare samples that I thought might be a nice gift to thank the nursing staff in my orbit during my recovery.

Would this be an okay gesture, or too much?

Additionally: would it make more sense to have a little “thank you please help yourself” sign with it in my room, or simply hand it over to someone to go to a staff area?

Also, if any of you have workplaces that discourage gestures like this, please let me know!
I don’t want to go creating additional tasks for anyone.

Thank you all!
