and are pictorial representations of family relationships and medical histories
.As mentioned earlier, they are often used to depict common diseases within a
family .A genogram allows the user to visualize hereditary patterns and can be
useful in identifying repetitive patterns of behavior and to recognize
hereditary tendencies .
For
this assignment, select a patient from your clinical experience whom you are
completing a subjective, objective, assessment, and plan (SOAP) note on and
complete a genogram based on his or her family history .If you have not started
clinical practice, then select a non-family member and complete a family
history on him or her to complete a genogram . Write up the family
history and create and save a family genogram in the same document .
