When acknowledging the patient's religious or political beliefs in a healthcare setting there are pros and cons. One of the benefit is that in regard to the religious setting it can help the patient spiritually like in the case of a cancer patient. If one trust God then it can provide a positive attitude that can be of help in the treatment. Another benefit can be one can respect another religion for example in the case of a Muslim that is admitted,the dietary can provide a no pork meal. Meanwhile, the cons would be the life of a patient can be endangered like in the case of a Jehovah's witness that do not believe in blood transfusion. Another would be if someone does not believe in medical treatment but only through natural method,it can then hasten the treatment of a client.
