Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E
Feedback:
Interventions to address spiritual distress include praying with the patient upon request and as desired, finding someone to read the Bible to the patient upon request, contacting the patient's church for clergy to visit, and helping the patient identify factors that contribute to spiritual distress. Reminding the patient that spiritual needs are often addressed last will not help with the patient's spiritual needs at this time and would be inappropriate to include in the plan of care.
