Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Health ministry services may be provided by a professional or layperson. These services include visiting the homebound, providing meals for families in crisis or when a family member returns home after hospitalization, participating in prayer circles, serving healthy heart meals, or hold-ing regular grief support groups. Conducting worship services in occupational areas, providing nursing care, and participating in mission trips are not typical roles of a health ministry.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Congregational communities that gather in churches, cathedrals, synagogues, or mosques and acknowledge common faith traditions are faith communities. A health ministry is a visible activi-ty, program, or ritual of faith organized around the health and healing of the congregation's membership and offered by the faith community nurse, clergy, layperson, or community resource. Faith community nursing is a recognized nursing specialty practice focusing on working with in-dividuals, families, and faith communities to coordinate programs and services that significantly affect health, healing, and wholeness. Holistic care relates to the relationship between the body, mind, and spirit in a constantly changing environment and involves caring for the soul in a special kind of engagement. Holistic care goes beyond assessing only the physical aspects of the patient; rather, it is the care of the entire patient.
