Guidelines for Training and Certification in Genetic Counselling
NHMRC Privacy Guidelines
2 July 2010
The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) has recently developed a user-friendly guideline document for health practitioners faced with the difficulty of making a decision about disclosing genetic information to a patient’s genetic relative(s), in private healthcare settings where patient consent has not been provided.
These Guidelines are available on line at www.nhmrc.gov.au/_files_nhmrc/file/publications/synopses/e96.pdf
