After asking general assessment questions regarding spirituality, the nurse finds the client content and satisfied. How should the nurse conduct the rest of the assessment?
 
  1. Specific questions regarding beliefs should be included.
  2. The nurse should validate spiritual information with the client's family.
  3. The assessment can now move on to physical assessment.
  4. No further specific spiritual assessment is currently necessary.

Question 2

During labor, it becomes apparent that the male infant will survive only a short time after birth. Because 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.

Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: If the client is satisfied and content with current levels of spirituality, there is no further specific spiritual assessment necessary.
Rationale 2: There is no need to validate spiritual assessment with family unless there is a question of the client's reliability as a historian.
Rationale 3: The spiritual assessment should take place at the end of the assessment, so physical assessment should already have been completed.
Rationale 4: If the client is satisfied and content with current levels of spirituality, there is no further specific spiritual assessment necessary.

Answer to Question 2

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.
