B) Flexible visitation, denial of imminent death
C) Limited visitation, participation in patient care
D) Short, frequent visitation; participation in patient care
Ans: A
Feedback: A person's psychosocial needs during the dying process of a relative may include flexible visitation, participation in patient care, and rest breaks. Denial of death may be a response to the situation but isn't classified as a need. Visitation should accommodate the wishes of family members as long as patient care isn't compromised.
