Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse should know the days of religious worship. Protestants usually worship on Sundays; Muslims' day of worship is from sunset Thursday to sunset on Friday; and Jews and Seventh-Day Adventists' holy day is from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. The other responses do not address the recognition by the nurse of the significance of the days of worship that were indicated as a priority for the client when an appointment was requested for earlier in the week.
