Abstract

The genogram is a chart structured representation that gives an account of family relationships, weaknesses, health defects and strengths. The representation usually gives a conclusion as to the various diseases that may be affecting the family, hence giving an analysis as to the expected family health defects. With early detection which is facilitated by the knowledge of the features of the family health, some of the family members may be protected from acquiring such diseases. The genogram structure should have a number of generations, with the index person, in the middle of the generation structure.
