ABSTRACT:
A garment combines a hospital gown with a robe. The gown extends across the front of and around and partially behind a patient. It is attached on one side end to the inside of a side of the robe and on that side's top to the shoulder of the robe. The other or free side end of the gown is folded on itself so that the tops of its behind and corresponding front portions may be sewn together to form a shoulder support. The top of the gown around portion is cut away to form an arm hole. The robe is made of three panel pieces: a back panel with lateral extensions and central collar part at its top; and right and left side panels each formed at the top with a lateral extension and a collar part. The top and bottom edges of corresponding lateral extensions are sewn together; likewise the adjacent edges of the side panels and the back panel above the sleeves, to the gown and robe collars, and the adjacent edges below the sleeves, to the bottom of the gown and robe. Cooperating VELCRO fastening elements on the outside of the gown's free-side shoulder and on the inside of the corresponding robe shoulder, may be used to hold the garment in place and with the robe closed.
