Health care is more effective when individuals are understood within the context of their families because the interrelationships between the individual and the members of their family influence health and health decision-making. This unit explores relationships between the health of families across the lifespan and the context of their environment using selected theoretical perspectives. The role of the nurse in working with families and promoting family health in a range of health care settings will be examined.
