ABSTRACT:
A functional and attractive garment is provided for convalescents who are confined to wheelchairs and secured therein for safety reasons by a restraining device. The garment features slits at either side, through which strap portions of a pelvic or other wheelchair restraint can be drawn from within to outside of the garment for fastening to the back of the wheelchair; a graduated hemline; and color-coded, detachable sleeves. When used in conjunction with such a restraining device, the garment fits the wearer comfortably and falls gracefully over the wearer's knees, preserving warmth and dignity. The color-coded, detachable sleeves facilitate donning of the garment and can be separated for injections, blood pressure examinations and so forth.
