Asess and educate the patient and/or family members, assess the patient's anatomy for proper size foley and any anomalies, tell pt. what you are doing as you perform catheterization; keep sterile, using a prep agent which is not harmful to the patient;place the foley and wait for urine drainage then inflate the balloon with the prescribed amount of saline; properly anchor the foley and maintain the drainage system at the proper depth. Re-educate the patient as needed.
