1. Today, Stedman passed away. You cared for him for almost three years, and he had become one of your favorite residents. There is a new girl, Sheila, working on the unit today. She is afraid of death; she has never experienced it before. You go find Sheila after Stedman dies and ask her to help you with post-mortem care. She agrees. When you get into Stedman's room, his wife is still there and is very upset. Sheila starts sobbing uncontrollably-so much so that Stedman's wife is consoling her.
