A parent of a 3-month-old infant is explaining to the nurse that the family wishes to raise the child to reflect their spiritual beliefs.
 
  According to Westerhoff's stages of faith, the nurse advises the parent to help the child grow in their faith by doing which of the following? 1. Read spiritually oriented books to the child
   2. Follow and live the faith of their choice
   3. Baptize the child in the parents' faith
   4. Take the child to ceremonies of their faith

Question 2

A two-year-old child who was born prematurely and is ventilator-dependent is ready for discharge from the hospital. The family wants to care for the child at home but does not have the resources for 24-hour care.
 
  The case manager intervenes by: 1. Telling the family that a long-term health facility would be the best location for a ventilator-dependent child.
   2. Making multiple referrals to a variety of community-based agencies.
   3. Arranging a community fund raiser to pay for support services.
   4. Contacting local nurses in the community to provide assistance for the family.

Answer to Question 1

2. Follow and live the faith of their choice

Rationale:
According to Westerhoff, the child experiences faith through interaction with others who are living the particular faith. Reading books on faith to a child is not as powerful as setting the example. Baptizing a child does not guarantee the child will experience faith. Taking the child to ceremonies is worthwhile but not as powerful as associating with those who live the faith.

Answer to Question 2

2. Making multiple referrals to a variety of community-based agencies.

Rationale:
The referral process is a systematic problem-solving approach that helps clients to use resources that meet their health care needs. The process involves knowledge of community resources and an ability to solve problems, set priorities, coordinate, and collaborate. The family's wishes for post-hospital care should be respected if other possibilities exist, which, in this case, they do. The nurse would not be responsible for a fund raiser. Contacting local nurses would not be an efficient way to coordinate care for the client.
