A nurse wants to know the functions of a faith community nurse. Which of the following re-sources would the nurse consult?

a. Board of Nursing
b. Scope and Standards
c. Health Cabinet

ANS: B
A nurse wanting to know the function of a faith community nurse would look to the Scopes and Standards. The Health Cabinet assists with evaluating assets and areas of need in order to plan services that will attain outcomes congruent with goals established by the congregation and faith communities served. The Board of Nursing regulates nursing practice, larger than the scope of faith community nursing. The individual faith community may be able to provide information to the nurse about what their specific needs are, but this will not define the scope and standards of practice.
