This paper was aimed at reviewing a set of aspects related to family health, considering it as a unique and irrepeatable process that is not characterized by the sum of the individual health problems of the family members, but by its multicausal origin, where not only the socioeconomic, sociopsychological and psychosocial factors take part, but also factors connected with the family functioning, the stage of the evolutive cycle, the structure and the own individual health of the members. Health family is not a static state. It is subjected to a process of transformation, in which the potentialities of the family play a fundamental role

Keywords : FAMILY HEALTH; FAMILY PRACTICE; INTERPERSONAL RELATIONS; SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS; LIFE STYLE; SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT.
