Abstract | Nurses represent the largest professional group within the National Health Service (NHS) and are therefore central to the successful integration of mainstreaming genomics into routine healthcare. Inherited cardiac conditions (ICC) nurse roles have been developed in recent years to streamline the care for patients and families affected by an ICC. Like many nurse specialists, ICC nurses' prior exposure to genomics and the wider implications surrounding inherited conditions is limited. The aim of the study was to explore the education needs and support required for ICC nurses to fulfill their role within the genomic medicine era. A convenience sampling approach was adopted to invite ICC nurses working within various NHS Trusts across the United Kingdom to take part. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ICC nurses (n = 8), which were recorded, transcribed, coded, and analyzed using an inductive thematic analysis approach. Analysis of interview data highlighted four core themes, which were transferrable core competencies; managing genomic information; mixed-modality learning; defining multidisciplinary team boundaries. The study highlights areas for further training and demonstrates the importance of defining competencies and role boundaries within ICC services. The ICC nurses identified the limits of their practice and the complementary role of genetic counselors, indicating the need for both professions within the ICC service and proposing implications for practice. |
