Answer to Question 1

C
When caring for Muslims, same-sex health care providers should be used if at all possible. Ham and bacon are not appropriate items to offer a Muslim patient, since they do not consume pork products.

Answer to Question 2

A
The first 2 inches of the catheter should be cleaned with soap and water every shift or more often if the patient is incontinent. Alcohol and lotions are contraindicated. Catheter care should be done every shift.
