Question

a nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a client who practices islam. which of the following questions should the nurse ask the client to clarify the client’s religious preferences?

\do you receive holy communion?\

\do you follow a kosher diet?\

\do you consume pork products?\

\do you oppose receiving a blood transfusion if it is needed?\

Explanation:

• "Do you receive Holy Communion?" is related to Christianity (Catholic/Protestant), not Islam.
• "Do you follow a kosher diet?" is related to Judaism, not Islam.
• "Do you consume pork products?" In Islam, consuming pork is generally prohibited, so asking this helps clarify religious dietary preferences for a Muslim client.
• "Do you oppose receiving a blood transfusion if it is needed?" is more related to Jehovah's Witnesses' beliefs, not a core Islamic religious preference about diet or common practices.

Answer:

C. "Do you consume pork products?"
