Answer to Question 1

C
By the mid-20th century, nursing in the United States began to see spiritual care as less important. As science has continued to develop and expand, and as more nurses studied in university settings, nursing joined ranks with scientific disciplines: Its spiritual underpinnings were replaced by what could be seen and tested by the scientific method. Only recently has nursing reclaimed the spiritual dimension as a vital part of its identity and recognized its power to influence health.

Answer to Question 2

C
One of the steps of most valued clarification processes is to list values (what is important and not important in life) and the time commitment for each. The nurse facilitates this by asking reflective, clarifying questions of the patient. Values clarification does not necessarily directly enhance self-esteem, inspire hope, or provide spiritual support, although the process can indirectly contribute to development of spiritual identity.
