Answer:

respectfully remove the patient’s clothes and prepare the water basin.

Explanation:

During the introduction, he should have already introduced himself and explained what he would be doing. During the preparation stage, Travis would have performed hand hygiene, prepared the materials, removed bed linens, and put on gloves. When starting the procedure Travis should first respectfully remove the patient’s clothes and prepare the water basin. The water basin needs to be 2/3 of the way filled with warm water that is approximately 115 degrees Farhenheit and must be checked to make sure the temperature is right before using the water on the client.
