Genomics can be used to personalize a patient's plan of care by identifying at-risk individuals for certain conditions so more effective preventive care can be provided,more accurately detecting illness,even before symptoms appear,tailoring healthcare to the individual while reducing a trial-and-error approach,evaluating a person's response to the care,and helping to understand how people respond differently to particular drugs and medical treatments.There is no evidence to support that the use of genomics and genograms has any effect on trust.Many individuals and families have an intense skepticism or mistrust of medical care and hospitals based on their own health belief systems or on past experiences with medical care and hospitals.
