Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Fold the washcloth like a mitt on your hand so that there are no loose ends. Moving from the inner to the outer aspect of the eye prevents carrying debris toward the nasolacrimal duct. The gluteal area should be cleaned first and the bath water and towels should be changed before cleaning the perineal area. It is not necessary to change the bath water after washing every body part.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Antiembolism stockings should be removed periodically to allow for assessment.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
