Choice C rationale:

Pointing the device away from oneself while opening it is a correct practice. This helps to prevent accidental exposure to the drainage fluid.

Choice D rationale:

Compressing the device in the hand before closing is a correct practice. This helps to maintain the suction in the drain.
