To perform catheter care for a male client, first ensure you have all necessary supplies, including gloves, antiseptic wipes, and a clean cloth. Begin by washing your hands and donning gloves. Gently clean the catheter insertion site using antiseptic wipes, moving from the site outward to reduce the risk of infection. Finally, secure the catheter to prevent movement and check for any signs of irritation or infection before disposing of waste properly and washing your hands again.

Does inserting a male urinary catheter hurt?
Absolutely! Uncomfortable is just a lie. Insertion of a catheter is likely one of the most feared experiences as a young male, right up there with having a prostate exam.
