How Can Nurses Integrate Pharmacogenomics in Patient Care?
Nurses can integrate pharmacogenomics by:
Collecting Family Histories: Gathering detailed family medical histories to identify potential genetic factors affecting drug response. Educating Patients: Informing patients about the benefits and limitations of pharmacogenomic testing. Collaborating with Healthcare Teams: Working closely with physicians, pharmacists, and geneticists to interpret test results and adjust medication plans accordingly.
