Hospital gowns leave patients vulnerable – their time’s up

Most of us feel vulnerable when hospitalised, and being told to strip off and put on a pre-worn, revealing, backless gown does nothing to improve matters.
Being escorted in this attire, often through public areas of a hospital, pretty much completes the humiliation.
What you wear affects how you feel about yourself. Studies suggest that clothing affects self-esteem, and getting dressed is a process of self-expression.
What you wear informs others of your social standing, your ambitions, emotions, motivations and even your employment status.
