A value is a strong personal belief. It is an ideal that a person or group (such as nurses) strives to uphold. An individual's values reflect cultural, social influences, and personal needs.
A belief is a conviction of the truth of something. The client's statement does not indicate that she has beliefs or fears about having a heart attack.
