Abstract: A health care personnel blouse of light-weight material including a pocket which is designed for holding pens, scissors, and the like normal to activities of health care personnel. The pocket is orientated in such a position as to be aligned with the fold of the groin of the wearer so that articles in the pocket when the wearer is bending over remain within the contours of the natural bend of the body, thereby preventing items from poking into the wearer or falling out of the pocket. Also, the pocket has a reinforced bottom to provide extended use of the garment even though it is of light-weight construction.
