Should relatives be allowed into the resuscitation room?

Article Abstract:

Patients should to allowed in the resuscitation room because they do not get in the way of medical procedures and have a right to spend time with a dying relative. However, a nurse who is opposed to allowing entry argues that the process of resuscitation is not nice to watch and is seldom successful. The patient has no dignity and relatives are often too distressed to take in what is happening. One benefit of allowing relatives to be there is that they may be able to accept a death more easily.
