Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
The nurse should first determine if it is permissible for the item to remain in place during the procedure. Removing the bracelet may create unnecessary stress for the client. Initially the nurse should determine if removal is necessary. Taping the bracelet in place may be appropriate after the nurse determines that the item may remain in place during the procedure. Asking the client to remove the item may create unnecessary stress for the client. Initially the nurse should determine if removal is necessary.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
Some Buddhists may refuse to move the dead body after death because of their belief that the spirit of the dead takes some time to leave the body. They define death as the absence of con-sciousness and loss of body warmth. Among Orthodox Jews, the body is generally buried before sundown. Some Asian Indians regard seeing the deceased as adding to the suffering of the fam-ily. Hindus and Buddhists believe that the soul lives on and the dead body without the soul is but an empty shell, and therefore may not want to see the body. Muslims prefer burial rather than cremation.
