The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people of a variety of faiths. This calls for acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

Research three diverse faiths. Choose faiths that are less well-known than mainstream faiths or are less known to you, such as Sikh, Bahai, Buddhism, Shintoism, Native American spirituality, etc. Compare the philosophy of providing care from the perspective of each of these three faiths with that of the Christian perspective and your own personal perspective.

In 1,250 -1500 words, summarize your findings, and compare and contrast the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research. Some of the questions to consider when researching the chosen religions are:

1. What is the spiritual perspective on healing?
2. What are the critical components of healing, such as prayer, meditation, belief, etc.?
3. What is important to people of a particular faith when cared for by health care providers whose spiritual beliefs differ from their own?
4. How do patients view health care providers who are able to let go of their own beliefs in the interest of the beliefs and practices of the patient? Compare these beliefs to the Christian philosophy of faith and healing.

In your conclusion, describe what you have learned from your research and how this learning can be applied to a health care provider practice.

Synopsis
On January 14, 2012, Amy Bourgon, sole proprietor of Bake Me A Cake (BMAC), set out to make some decisions regarding the company’s future strategy. BMAC had grown and Bourgon was considering a move because she was unsure of how much more growth the current space could accommodate and wondered whether it was time to take the business to the next level. Bourgon needed to decide whether to renovate her family’s home or to lease a commercial location for the business. Also, because Bourgon wanted to improve BMAC’s profitability, she was considering increasing cupcake prices; and she also wondered how BMAC should best advertise for fiscal 2012. Bourgon decided she would first analyze the company’s three-year financial performance and then project financial performance for fiscal 2012, depending on her decisions. She hoped to implement all changes before April 2012, when the next busy wedding season would begin.
