Abstract
Objective: To investigate, through current literature, the role of nurses in genetic counseling, in addition to highlighting the contribution of this professional, highlighting its implications in clinical practice and health promotion. Literature review: The analysis of bibliographic sources revealed that genetic counseling plays a central role in the early identification of hereditary diseases, promoting the understanding of heredity, prevention strategies and the sharing of information between patients and their families. In addition, the role of nurses as a fundamental agent in facilitating this process was highlighted, contributing significantly to the quality of life of patients. Final considerations: It can be considered that genetic counseling is an essential tool in the approach to genetic conditions, with a direct impact on the prevention, diagnosis and management of diseases. In this context, nurses emerge as essential mediators, integrating genetic knowledge into care practice, strengthening the bond with patients and families and enhancing health outcomes.
