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.

Abstract: A health care personnel uniform of light-weight material including a jacket or blouse for the uniform having a conventional type of breast pocket. At the bottom across the full width of the blouse is a pocket panel with a vertical seam in the center to form two pouch pocket compartments. The bottom portion of the pocket panel has a separate piece of material for reinforcing the bottom of the pocket which is integral with the hemline along substantially the full width of the blouse. The pouch pocket openings are set at a convenient angle for entrance of the hand into the pocket and disallowing objects from falling out of the pockets.The outboard pant pockets have similar closures as the outside blouse pockets and like all pockets the bottoms are reinforced.
