Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

The family and client believe the client will recover and that their faith and divine intervention will sustain them. This is evidence of spiritual health. The family may or may not be denying the client's health status. The family is not demonstrating conflict. The family may be a good support system to the client.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B, D

Characteristics of spiritual distress include refusing interaction with family and friends and taking no interest in interaction with the environment. Talking with a spouse or healthcare provider and crying with children are not characteristics of spiritual distress.
