ABSTRACT:
A disposable medical bib that attaches around the neck of the patient on one side is disclosed. It not only protects the patient's chest from unwanted substances, but also includes a headrest cover and, optionally, the headrest itself. The medical bib can also optionally include a hairnet to contain the patient's hair. An alternative embodiment of the invention includes a pocket on the chest portion of the bib to collect unwanted substances, as well as a pocket on the headrest cover portion to hold items such as a headrest. A portion of the bib can be elongated to cover the midsection of the patient.
