Enhancing Patient-Centered Care Through the Use of Digital Tools in the Delivery of Genomic Medicine

Abstract

Clara Gaff

To fulfil the growing demand for genomic sequencing (GS) across medicine, alternative forms of genetic counselling are required. This demand is growing as a result of the severe lack of experts who can conduct genomic counselling, a procedure that includes counselling for the many hazards that GS can uncover. There are roughly 5,500 genetic counsellors in Canada and the United States to service a population of almost 400 million people, or 1.5 professionals per 100,000 people. It is anticipated that this workforce will need to double in order to fulfil the rising demand for genetic counselling.
