Nice lessons indeed

[@just.lyrical3910]

I was taught not to let the clients feet touch the floor. So I would have to put the shoes on the resident while they are still laying down. Is this true ?

[@Dreamscapeninja]

I believe you should put the shoes on

[@raelynmarrufo6553]

They should have socks on so the shoes on the floor is fine.
