Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Establishing presence is part of the art of nursing. Presence involves being with a patient versus doing for a patient. Demonstrate a caring presence by listening to the patient's concerns and willingly involving family in discussions about the patient's health. Show self-confidence when providing health instruction, and support patients as they make decisions about their health.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Spirituality is a complex concept that is unique to each individual; is dependent upon a person's culture, development, life experiences, beliefs, and ideas about life; and is a unifying theme in peoples' lives. Religion refers to the system of organized beliefs and worship that a person practices to outwardly express spirituality. Self-transcendence is the belief that there is a force outside of and greater than the person. Faith allows people to have firm beliefs despite lack of physical evidence.
