Discussion 4.2 – Exploration of the significance of the spiritual and psychological environment in health care.The seen environment is often evident with the use of your five senses, although it may “fool” you at times. The unseen environment is one which is often harder to detect and can only be perceived indirectly. The struggle which exists in the unseen environment may affect you and your patients more than we realize, thus keeping the focus and being prepared for the unseen becomes important in all nursing encounters.Respond to the discussion board questions posted:In what ways does the spiritual and psycho-social environment affect health?Think of a time when you or someone you know was put into the role of “patient” (either in a hospital or outpatient setting). What impressed you, positively or negatively, in the health care environment?
