During labor, it becomes apparent that the male infant will survive only a short time after birth. Since this baby's parents are Catholic, what planning should the nurse consider?
 
  1. Arrange to have the baby circumcised immediately after birth.
  2. Ask the hospital chaplain to be present in the delivery room.
  3. Ask the nursing supervisor to find a Catholic nurse to attend the birth.
  4. Consider emergency transport of the mother to a Catholic hospital.

Question 2

The emergency department nurse contacts the admissions office to request a bed for a bed-bound client who is a practicing Muslim. Acting as an advocate for the client, what request should the nurse make of the admission clerk?
 
  1. Please try to find a private room.
  2. A bed that faces east will be best.
  3. Have the bed stripped as the client will provide special sheets.
  4. If the only available room is semi-private, the other client should be Muslim.

Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: The concern of this family will be baptism of the infant, not circumcision.
Rationale 2: In this situation, the best choice is to have the hospital chaplain present in the delivery room.
Rationale 3: This might be applicable if no other option, such as a Catholic chaplain, is available.
Rationale 4: Transfer of a laboring woman to another facility is not possible.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: There is no restriction that the room must be private.
Rationale 2: Since this bed-bound client is a practicing Muslim and this religion has a sacred practice of five daily prayers performed while facing east, the logical bed assignment for this client is one that faces east.
Rationale 3: There is no indication that the client will have hospital linens replaced by special sheets.
Rationale 4: There is no restriction that the other client in a semi-private room must be Muslim.
