i've never been admitted to the hospital so i'm a little confused regarding the hospital gowns. is every patient required to wear them when they get admitted? or even when you visit a & e? or only certain patients depending on their ailment? if i remember correctly, when my dad was in hospital for appendicitis he just wore comfortable sweats and a t-shirt from home but i'm from a european country so that might differ as well... anyways i've always been a little confused about pretty much everything regarding hospitals so i hope you can help me out with this!
Nope, no one is required to wear a gown, and a lot of people do bring their own clothing or pajamas from home. The thing is there are a lot of things that can stain clothing in a hospital- blood, betadine, bleach, etc... and we generally will suggest if someone wants to keep their clothing nice that they wear a gown instead.
