Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Some strategies for identifying faith community needs include attend meetings for the different groups; distribute an educational needs survey to various groups within the faith community, not just one segment; form an ad hoc committee to study the health ministry with both formal and informal leaders; and remember to only make decisions with input from the faith community.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Retired professional nurses are ideally suited to work as faith community nurses. As the nursing workforce ages, creative ways to maintain an adequate cadre of nurses to meet the health needs of the population are needed. Older nurses are likely to want or need more flexibility in their schedules and work situations that are less physically demanding.
