Family Health

The family is a fundamental social organization including people of different or same genders as parents, with children, relatives, and even clans. Members of different ages and genders all go through life stages with differing health issues in maintaining health and preventing disease.The field of family health can be seen at the crossroads between the disciplines of family psychology and health psychology. The connections between health and family factors are numerous, varied, and important. Nevertheless, the fields of 'family health psychology' and 'family systems medicine' are still in the early stages of development, although family psychology and health psychology are established disciplines.
