The correct answer is to Listen empathetically to all of her complaints and let her know she can contact you for any additional assistance.

Explanation:

When communicating with relatives of a patient that died, it is important to communicate assertively and avoid confrontations. Also, acknowledge the feelings of the relative and show empathy or comprehension. After all, they are experiencing the loss of a loved one. In this context, even if the relative of the patient is anger and considers you could have the patient, avoid behaviors such as correcting, attacking, or confronting this person.
