For the many who have asked about the kimono-style wrap-gowns, here’s the response I received from my mgr when I asked about her source.  I think you’ll enjoy the “yup, that’s how it goes” feeling. See below.  That’s all I know.  And as Diane and others have mentioned there are the simple options of wearing regular gowns backwards or undoing the snaps along both shoulders if the regular gown is already in place frontwards.  Now if I could only get them to stop taping that epidural catheter to the front shoulder for the moms who had cesarians!

I got the info and the sample from our Linen Manager who has since quit the job. I am contacting the new Supervisor to as about  the product for the future. The tag in the robe says  "FEELS LIKE HOME".
