    Journal: Dimens Crit Care Nurs; 1994; 13(3):155-6. PubMed ID: 7988328.
    Abstract:
    Children visiting parents in the ICU is still controversial. Here are six different opinions about children visiting from ICU nurses, an infection control practitioner, and even a parent. All view points are important to consider in providing access of children to their critically ill parents. Interestingly, even nurses who do not generally support child visitation have allowed children's visits in special circumstances and found the experience positive.
