Advances in genetics and the identification of genes responsible for the predisposition to certain diseases has opened up the possibility of identifying families and individuals with a greater chance of suffering from these diseases. By meeting individuals at higher risk of suffering from these diseases, we will be able to implement effective measures for early diagnosis and prevention by rationalizing the cost and reducing the morbidity, physical or mental, of these examinations. Addressing hereditary predisposition from Primary Care is critical to the successful implementation of primary and secondary prevention measures in both patients and their immediate family members.
Genetic counseling is the process of non-directive communication through which individuals and / or families at greater risk of hereditary predisposition receive information about the possibility of presenting or transmitting a disease, of the measures currently available for its prevention and early diagnosis, and the implications of genetic study for both him and other family members.
In the information age, these advances have not been exclusively in the healthcare environment, but rather have quickly transcended into the public light thanks to the media. This has led to a growing social demand for the possibilities of having a genetic predisposition to diseases such as neoplastic and genetic counseling.
The nursing professional is key in translating knowledge in genetics into clinical practice. The identification of the roles to be developed by nursing professionals in the area of genetics and the training of these professionals will ensure adequate assistance.
