Say so long to that draft in the back. A Detroit-based health system is rolling out a hospital gown that aims to offer more style and fix a lack of rear coverage by other gowns. Resembling a wrap-around robe, the "Model G" gown closes the once-drafty back, using adjustable snaps on the front and along the shoulders. Henry Ford Health System said Thursday that more than 35,000 gowns are going to its hospitals this month; and, according to a news release, patients in several hospital inpatient units "already are comfortably wearing Model G."
