What is the best strategy for the nurse to plan for such situations? 1. Try to ensure assignment to clients who are unlikely to request prayer. 2. Arrange to have a co-worker substitute for the nurse in these prayer situations. 3. Memorize two or three short, formal prayers to use when prayer is requested. 4.
