A wrap around patient restraint includes a unitary vest body having a front panel and a pair of separable back panels having vertical edge portions which are normally adapted to overlap. The vest body also has a lower horizontal edge portion at approximately waist level. The inner and outer overlapping vertical edge portions of the back panels are respectively provided with attached reinforcing straps, with their attachment to the vest body terminating at the top of the panels adjacent the neck portion. The outer strap extends beyond the attachment terminus to form a first elongated free end for attachment to a bed or the back of a wheelchair. A horizontal slot is disposed in the vest body above the terminus of the outer strap attachment. The inner strap also extends beyond its attachment terminus to form a second elongated free end which passes outwardly through the horizontal slot. The lower horizontal edge portion of the vest body is provided with an attached waist encircling reinforcing strap. The attachment terminates at the overlapping lower corners of the back panels and each end of the strap thereupon extends freely from its respective corner. The strap extending from the inner lower corner of one back panel passes outwardly through a vertical slot disposed in the opposite back panel, while the strap extending in the opposite direction from the outer lower corner of the other back panel passes through a loop in the respective opposite back panel. The vertical slot passes through the material of the vest body itself and also the waist encircling reinforcing strap, and is partially offset upwardly from the plane of the latter. The free ends of the waist encircling strap are adapted for attachment to the bedframe of a bed or the arm portions of a wheelchair.
