Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
It is a responsibility of the nurse to help the client in an unfamiliar environment continue normal spiritual practices. One intervention that can facilitate the practice of religion is to attempt to meet the client's dietary restrictions.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Clients accustomed to regular periods of prayer but who feel too ill to pray may ask the nurse to pray with them. Because there are many forms of prayer, the nurse can take the lead by asking How would you like us to pray?
