ABSTRACT:
An improved patient's hospital gown comprises a body portion having a front panel and overlapping inner and outer back panels. The back panels overlap for a substantial portion of their respective widths. The front panel is joined to the two back panels along each side by a series of spaced apart fasteners. In a first embodiment, a yoke portion is attached to the body portion of the gown and is closed around the neck of the patient when the overlapping back panels are each secured with fasteners to the respective opposite sides of the yoke portion. In a second embodiment, the yoke portion comprises a contiguous piece of fabric that is put on over the patient's head, thereby preventing the gown from falling off of the patient's shoulders when the back panels are unfastened.
