Few structures of social life have so much influence on personality as the family, however, not as difficult as building it and shaping her. Therein, the individual becomes person, develops human and socialize to achieve the values, norms and behaviors that allow you to live together in an acceptable way within your social group. Inside health-related habits are formed, generate processes that act as health protectors or triggers for the disease. The family has undergone significant changes throughout history, which have generated various forms of family organization. It is important that nurses recognize the impact of the composition and structure on family health, because terms like nuclear family, single-parent family, single parent, extended family, or family gay, refer to people living in the same family space. This diversity of families so heterogeneous, with regard to their nature and their everyday development, makes it necessary that the family nurse considered to provide care for the family, encompassing aspects of his experience, such as; its history, its progress and its current state as a priority using primary care strategies.
