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.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
