Dignity Pajama designer Fran Goldberg used ingenuity to create pajamas for bedbound patients, and created meaning following the death of her parents. As a clothing designer, Fran knows design and fabrics. As a caregiver for both her parents at the end of their lives, she learned the importance of comfort, dignity, and convenience in pajamas. The designs of Dignity Pajamas include features that protect the skin and preserve the modesty of the wearer. When Fran saw a paid caregiver cut a t-shirt up the back for Fran’s mother to wear, she knew her mother would never choose something like that to wear. Fran set out to design something that a woman would choose to wear. Her designs feature beautiful fabrics and styles for women, and dignified designs for me. Fran also incorporated practical design features to help caregivers provide care. The pajamas help the wearer to feel proud of how they look and be comfortable around visitors. Fran Goldberg has created a wonderful legacy as a caregiver with Dignity Pajamas.
