Cevap

The correct actions are omitting coffee and black tea from the meal tray, seeking permission before removing sacred undergarments, and providing privacy for a blessing of the sick.
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints observe the Word of Wisdom, which prohibits coffee and black tea. Devout members often wear sacred temple garments that should be treated with deep respect and removed only when medically necessary, ideally with the client's permission. Additionally, receiving a priesthood blessing from church elders is a core spiritual practice during illness, requiring the nurse to facilitate privacy and respect.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the client's specific religious affiliation and associated practices.
The client is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Key practices include the Word of Wisdom (no coffee or black tea), wearing temple garments, and receiving priesthood blessings.
Accurate identification of spiritual needs prevents the application of incorrect cultural stereotypes.
2
Evaluate each nursing intervention against the client's religious practices and the practical nurse scope of practice.
Omitting coffee and tea, respecting sacred garments, and allowing priesthood blessings align directly with the client's faith and the nurse's role.
Culturally competent care requires accommodating specific religious practices when they do not interfere with medical safety.
3
Identify and exclude interventions that represent nursing errors or fall outside the PN scope of practice.
Providing false reassurance, ordering a kosher diet (which is for Judaism), and explaining surgical risks (which is the provider's role) must be excluded.
Safe and effective care requires therapeutic communication, accurate dietary accommodations, and strict adherence to legal scope of practice.
