2. A client expresses confidence in their traditional healer to relieve symptoms of an
illness. What is the client demonstrating?
A. hope
B. spirituality
C. faith
D. charity
Answer: C
Rationale: Faith generally refers to a confident belief in something for which there is
no proof or material evidence. It can involve a person, idea, or thing and is usually
followed by action related to the ideals and values of the belief. A client who has
faith in a health care provider is more likely to follow the plan of care, and
experience benefits. Hope is an optimistic state of mind that is based on an
expectation of positive outcomes with respect to events and circumstances in one's
life or the world at large. Spirituality is the quality of being concerned with the
human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things. The practice of
charity means the voluntary giving of help to those in need, as a humanitarian act.

,3. A client states, "My life has meaning and purpose, I feel loved, and have
experienced forgiveness in my life." What is the term that describes this state of
spirituality?
A. Spiritual belief
B. Spiritual alienation
C. Spiritual health
D. Spiritual bliss
Answer: C
Rationale: Defined most simply, spiritual health or well-being is the condition that
exists when the universal spiritual needs for meaning and purpose, love and
belonging, and forgiveness are met. Spiritual beliefs include the relationship to a
superior being and are related to an existential perspective on life, death, and the
nature of reality. Spiritual alienation is a nursing diagnosis, as evidenced by
expressions of loneliness or the feeling that God seems very far away and remote
from one's everyday life, verbalization that one has to depend upon one's self in
times of trial or need, and/or a negative attitude toward receiving any comfort or
help from God. Spiritual bliss comes from being totally connected with self, soul,
body, and a higher power.

4. What factor is necessary to express and experience spirituality?
A. quiet time in isolation from others
B. membership in an organized religion
C. long-term suffering and pain
D. connectedness with other people
Answer: D
Rationale: People express and experience spirituality through love and
connectedness with other people. Love develops from the basic human need to love
and be loved and is necessary to spiritual wholeness. Membership in an organized
religion is if a person has religious beliefs. Long term suffering and pain and
isolation are not associated with a client having spirituality.
