My mother is in a nursing home. They do not have bibs, they have "adult clothing protectors".

The care home by us uses terry cloth ones but they are pink or blue or green.

I make them for our local nursing home. I use dollar store dish towels and just put a binding on a half circle cut from one end They are simple, fun to make and very much appreciated

The nursing home where my father resided was very careful to call them 'clothing protectors' - I suspect to protect the dignity of the residents who wore a 'bib'.

I make bibs out of towels. I put straps that go around the neck and fasten with velcro or permanently attached. (Goes over the head)
