Rectal suppository( NURSING FOUNDATION)

This document provides information about rectal suppositories, including their purpose, equipment needed, and procedures for administration. Rectal suppositories are solid, cone-shaped masses that melt at body temperature to produce a bowel movement, soften feces, relieve pain, soothe the bowel, and stimulate secretion. The procedure involves explaining it to the patient, providing privacy, positioning the patient, inserting the tapered end of the suppository into the anal canal, and having the patient apply pressure over the anus to retain it.
