These new NANDA approved diagnoses are very interesting. Risk for sedentary lifestyle is certainly a good one. I am not certain that I would use Religiosity all that often. I am not sure that I would be qualified to determine this. I work at a faith based hosptial and I would think that the chaplan would be better situated to make that determination ... but these are nursing diagnoses .... can you give an example of when these might be used? Just curious.
