Answer to Question 1

B
The Joint Commission has recommended that the criteria for spiritual care be included in their accreditation criteria. These items include acknowledging a client's rights to spiritual care and providing for these needs through pastoral care and a diversity of services that may be offered by certified, ordained, or lay individuals.

Answer to Question 2

C
All of the choices need to be addressed, but the highest priority is placed on the verbalization of suicidal thoughts; this requires immediate intervention to prevent harm or injury to client.
