The new Model G gowns — developed by the system’s Henry Ford Innovation Institute and made by Dearborn, Mich.-based clothing company Carhartt — offer more style and address the lack of rear coverage that many patients complain about with other hospital gowns.

The Model G gowns resemble wrap-around robes that cover the back using adjustable snaps on the front and along the shoulders and are made of a cotton-poplin blend for improved comfort. Their name is a tribute to Henry Ford’s Model T car.
