A nurse is paying particular attention to the spiritual needs of a client today. The nurse identifies that spiritual beliefs can have a positive effect on general health of a client in which ways? Select all that apply.

A. Encouraging denial of illness is incorrect as denial is not a healthy coping mechanism and may hinder treatment adherence.
B. Encouraging the patient to let staff have total control is incorrect because patient autonomy and involvement in care decisions enhance coping and emotional well-being.
C. Fostering trust in the interprofessional health care team is correct as it helps the patient feel supported and engaged in their care, reducing anxiety and promoting better coping strategies.
D. Telling the patient that everything will be all right is incorrect because it is a false reassurance that does not validate the patient's feelings or situation.

A. Requesting a consultation by the facility's Ethics Committee is appropriate because it can provide guidance in resolving the ethical conflict between the parents' differing views and the principle of autonomy for the child.
B. Relying on other medical interventions to support the client's needs related to the drop-in hemoglobin is not correct. While alternative treatments may be considered, this would not resolve the ethical conflict regarding the blood transfusion and does not directly address the dilemma between the parents.
C. Discussing at length the impact refusing the blood transfusion on the client's prognosis is not the best initial step. Although it may be helpful to provide this information, the core issue here is parental disagreement and religious beliefs, which should be addressed through legal or ethical consultations rather than simply offering further explanations.
D. Relaying the decision until it's apparent the hemoglobin level is dropping even lower is not appropriate. Delaying the decision may jeopardize the patient's life and does not respect the urgency of the situation or resolve the parental conflict.
E. Asking that other members of the client's immediate family provide insight regarding the client's view on blood transfusions is not the most effective option. While family members may have insight, this does not resolve the conflict between the parents and may not be legally binding.
F. Arranging for a Jehovah's Witness clergy member to discuss the situation with the client's father may provide some guidance, but it is unlikely to resolve the legal and ethical conflict about the blood transfusion. A clergy member's intervention is helpful in supporting religious beliefs but does not address the medical or legal implications of the decision.
G. Applying to the court system to arbitrate the conflict may be necessary if the parents cannot reach a consensus and if the medical team believes that the life-saving treatment should proceed. The court can make decisions based on the best interests of the child, particularly when there is a disagreement between parents.
