Final Answer : D , Explanation :  Identifying the patient's personal spiritual belief will provide you with more information to incorporate into the plan of care.These beliefs may be associated with or independent of religious affiliations.Not all people of a religious group adhere to its norms,rituals,and/or practices; therefore,questions should extend beyond focusing only on the patient's or his family's religion.
