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.
