Show Notes

In this episode of Vital Signs, host Jen Gaudet sits down with Shawn Gibbs, CEO and co-founder of Give Gowns, to discuss an often-overlooked aspect of healthcare: patient dignity.

Shawn shares how something as simple as a hospital gown can influence a patient's comfort, confidence, trust, and overall healthcare experience. The conversation explores why many patients feel vulnerable, exposed, or anxious during medical visits and how those feelings can affect communication, engagement, and even willingness to seek care.
