INSERTING A FOLEY CATHETER ON A FEMALE PATIENT/SKILL DEMO

In this video I demonstrate how to insert an indwelling Foley catheter on a female patient. I also discuss some tips and tricks and why female patients can be a little bit more difficult then male patients to complete this task on.

Follow along and study by answering these questions.
1. What allergies do we need to assess for when doing this skill?
2. What is an alternative to Betadine?
3. In what order do we use the Betadine swabs?
4. How do we know when we are in the right spot?
5. What should you do if you accidentally put the catheter in the vagina?

Got a video request? Let me know in the comments below.
