Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The nurse must understand the policies and beliefs of the congregation related to specific health issues. Church doctrine may guide members to adopt values and beliefs that are in conflict with current health care recommendations, such as issues of homosexuality, infertility, birth control, or sex education for youth. The parish nurse must understand that the politics of working within the faith system require acceptance of individual and system values and beliefs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
OASIS is a data set that measures outcomes of adult home care patients to monitor outcome-based quality improvement. These items are used to monitor outcomes, plan patient care, provide reports on patient characteristics for each agency, and evaluate and improve clinical performance. The use of OASIS is mandatory for all Medicare and Medicaid patients receiving skilled care. The primary purpose of OASIS is not to analyze the cost-effectiveness of health agencies. This data set does not publicize hospital data or survey patient satisfaction of care from the health agencies.
