Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Family members will grieve differently. One sign of normal grief is keeping the deceased individual's room intact as a way to keep that person alive in the minds of survivors. This is happening after the family member is deceased, so it is not end-of-life grief. It is not abnormal or complicated grief; the child died recently.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Listening to family members' stories validates the importance of the dying individual's life and reinforces the dignity of the person's life. Taking pictures of visitors does not address the value of a person's life. Calling organ donation and providing private visiting time are components of the dying process, but they do not validate a dying person's life.
