Answer to Question 1

ANS:
C, D, B, E, A, F

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C
Handwashing is an essential part of medication administration. Gloves are worn with topical medication to prevent absorption into the practitioner's own skin. Dryness does not encourage wound healing. Sterile dressings do not work well for all wounds.
