Which of the following interview questions will best determine a client's readiness for enhanced spiritual well-being?
 
  1. Are you a religious person?
  2. Are you satisfied with your life?
  3. To whom do you turn when you have a problem to deal with?
  4. Do you tend to rely on prayer during times of personal stress?

Question 2

When asked about his or her religious affiliation, a client responds, That's personal; why do you want to know? The most appropriate nursing response is:
 
  1. You need not answer my question if you prefer not to share that information.
  2. All information you provide will be kept in strict confidence.
  3. By knowing your religious preferences, I can best meet your spiritual needs.
  4. I did not mean to offend you; we ask that question of all our new admissions.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Readiness for enhanced spiritual well-being is based on defining characteristics that show a per-son's ability to experience and integrate meaning and purpose in life through connectedness with self and others. A client with this nursing diagnosis has potential resources to draw on when faced with illness or a threat to well-being. By asking the client to identify his or her coping strategy for times of stress, the nurse can begin to assess the client's spiritual well-being. The re-maining options are more directed towards assessing faith, or life satisfaction.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
The Joint Commission requires health care organizations to acknowledge clients' rights to spiritu-al care and provide for clients' spiritual needs through pastoral care or others who are certified, ordained, or lay individuals. The Joint Commission requires nurses to assess their clients' denom-ination, beliefs, and spiritual practices. Informing the client of this requirement and the purpose for which the information will be used is the most appropriate response. The remaining options fail to fully answer the client's question.
