Question 2
You have arrived at the home of an elderly man who called 911 for pain in his penis. He has a Foley catheter in place. He is supposed to have a home health aide visiting him daily, but, although it is 1500 hours, she has not yet visited today. You visualize the catheter and bag and note that the Foley bag is full of urine, so much so that it appears to be pulling the tube taut. You should:
A) call the home health care service and ask when the health aide is scheduled to arrive.
B) access the drain, drain the urine into a container, and reassess the patient's discomfort.
C) transport to the ED, as any procedure involving a Foley requires special training.
D) remove the Foley catheter using aseptic technique and transport.
