Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Patients with diabetes are usually seen by a podiatrist or diabetic specialist for foot care needs. Nurses can trim toenails of patients not at risk for infection. Physical therapists provide services that restore function and mobility. Occupational therapists use treatments to maintain or restore daily living and work skills.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The foreskin must be returned to its normal position after cleaning to prevent contraction and swelling. It is okay to move the foreskin to clean the penis. To retract the foreskin, gently push it toward the body. It should be returned to its position by the nurse, not left to return on its own.
