Abstract: A garment including a modesty panel is described which is designed for patients of hospitals or nursing homes. The garment comprises first and second garment portions which have upper and lower ends and inner and outer side edges. The first and second garment portions are joined at their upper inner side edges to form a body portion which may be wrapped around the person to cover the lower abdomen, thighs and buttocks of the person. The lower ends of the first and second garment portions have ankle receiving portions adapted to receive the ankles of the person. The garment portions have a width sufficient, between the body portion and the ankle receiving portions, to enable the first and second garment portions to be wrapped around the person's legs. A foldable modesty panel is provided at the juncture of the upper inner side edges of the garment portions. The modesty panel extends downwardly from the body portion and covers the person's genital area whether the person is standing, sitting or reclining.
