Introduction: The birth of a child is an event that causes a series of changes in roles and family dynamics. Studying grandfatherhood is finding the grandfather's prominent role in family health.
Objetives: To describe the process of transition to grand parenting as a grandfather and to characterize the performance of the grandparent role in the figure of man as grandfather in family health.
Methods: A qualitative study using the Grounded Theory methodological approach according to the approach of Strauss and Corbin (2008). The intentional sample consisted of twenty-six grandparents safeguarding the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, after informed consent.
Results: It is in the family and community context that becoming a grandfather: process of building grandfatherthood, having found the causal condition, the intervening conditions, the strategies and the consequences. By becoming a grandfather, the man who already has other roles assumes before society another role, that of grandfather, in which he performs different tasks or functions within the community and the family nucleus where he is inserted with a view to family health. Conclusions: Studying the grandfather figure focuses on the parental role in family health, giving visibility and sustainability to the grandfather figure in the care and care of grandchildren, thus helping health professionals to integrate grand parenting phenomenon.
