Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
Islamic beliefs about death are that the family should be with the dying person so they can read the Koran and pray. There are also special procedures for care of the body after death; men wash male bodies and women wash female bodies and a variety of other rituals are performed. Hinduism beliefs include placing the body on the floor to facilitate the soul's journey. The anointing of the sick sacrament is part of the Roman Catholic faith.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Prior to assessment, nurses should be aware of their own spiritual condition. Acknowledging and recognizing select spiritual beliefs as personal will allow the nurse to discern and focus on the specific needs of the client.
