The G-100 patient gown, made in the USA
Hospiva designs and manufactures a patented hospital gown that gives clinicians access to lines, leads, and ports without exposing the patient. Reusable, domestically made, and supplied by a WBENC-certified, women-owned company.
A cross-functional gown that streamlines IV and line access, secures telemetry devices, and keeps personal items close, with front and rear hook-and-loop closures for full clinical access and full privacy.
Streamlined access for IV lines, central and PICC lines, and dialysis ports, without disturbing the gown or the patient.
Opens for clinical access during procedures and diagnostic imaging, then closes fully for patient privacy.
Keep telemetry instruments and personal items such as eyewear and hearing aids close at hand and off the bedside table.
A secure, adjustable hook-and-loop closure at the shoulder that holds through movement and patient transfer.
Mid-to-bottom rear access with hook-and-loop closure, giving full provider access without full undress.
Secures foley bags and personal items in place, reducing tangling and freeing hands for care.
Every shift asks you to move fast and treat gently: start a line without a delay, check a dressing without a struggle, keep a frightened or confused patient covered and calm, all while the clock is already against you.
The standard hospital gown was never designed with any of that in mind. It was designed to be cheap to produce and easy to launder. Everything it costs you, the extra hands, the improvised opening, the moment a patient is exposed longer than they should be, was never anyone's problem to solve.
Jennifer Osby works at the bedside in cardiac and critical care, and she designed the G-100 from those shifts. The portal that lets you reach a line without unwrapping a patient. The closures that open fully for a procedure and close completely afterward. The pockets that keep a telemetry lead from disappearing into the sheets. Each one is a specific moment she needed the gown to do something it couldn't.
Hospiva wasn't built to look better in a hospital lobby. It was built so that the fastest way to reach a patient is also the most respectful way, so speed and dignity stop being a trade-off you manage on your own.
What buyers need to evaluate the G-100, and how purchasing works.
Request a specification sheet and evaluation samples for your nursing council or value analysis committee.
Trial the gown on a unit where line access and telemetry are constant, such as cardiac, critical care, step-down, or dialysis, and measure what changes.
Hospiva contracts directly with hospitals, clinics, and health systems and works within your supplier onboarding process.
Hospiva Medical is owned and led by two women: Vivian Gallman-DeRienzo, PhD, who spent thirty years building nursing and health programs in higher education, and Jennifer Osby, MEd, BSN, RN, a practicing cardiac and critical-care nurse who designed the G-100 from her own shifts.

A nation's care for its people begins with what it is willing to manufacture for them. Every G-100 is cut, sewn, woven, and printed in the United States by partners we name, so the supply chain behind the gown is as accountable as the gown itself.
A hospital gown is often the first thing that tells a patient they are no longer in control. We built Hospiva to change what that garment says.
Hospiva exists at the intersection of medical device engineering and textile design, treating the hospital gown as what it actually is: a piece of equipment worn by a person at their most vulnerable. Every seam, closure, and fabric choice is made twice, once for the clinician who needs fast, reliable access, and once for the patient who needs to feel like themselves.
Worn like clothing, not endured like equipment. Soft-hand textiles and considered construction reduce the physical reminder of illness.
Coverage that respects the person inside it, designed to minimize exposure during transport, ambulation, and daily care.
Assessment access engineered into the garment itself, not improvised at the bedside.
Manufactured to last, not to discard. Materials and construction chosen to withstand institutional laundering cycles.

What clinicians, procurement teams, and supplier-diversity officers ask most.
The G-100 is built differently from the standard gown at every level, not just the fabric, but who designed it, who owns it, and how it's protected and verified:
Yes. The G-100 is engineered to accommodate a wide range of patients, including higher-acuity and higher-risk populations such as those with limited mobility, fall risk, isolation or infection-control precautions, and frequent line or telemetry access, without asking any one group to sacrifice comfort, safety, or dignity. The adjustable closures and cross-functional access points are designed to work across body types and levels of care.
The gown features multiple dedicated access points, including the front portal for IV connections, central and PICC lines, and dialysis ports, so a clinician can reach what they need quickly without removing or repositioning the gown. Front and rear hook-and-loop closures open fully for procedures and diagnostic imaging, then close completely afterward, so access never comes at the cost of the patient's privacy.
Hospiva gowns are made from 100% domestic raw materials, a 55% cotton / 45% polyester blend chosen for breathability and softness against the skin, combined with the durability needed to withstand repeated institutional laundering cycles.
Hospiva gowns are manufactured by American Stitchco in Mountain Home, Arkansas. The fabric is custom-made by AKAS Textiles & Laminations, a manufacturer of Made-in-America textiles in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. The print design is provided by Little Cocalico, a sustainable custom fabric printing company in Ephrata, Pennsylvania.
