阿米什人的宗教和文化信仰导致了许多与美国主流文化截然不同的医疗保健信仰和实践。例如，阿米什人被排除在社会保障和医疗保险之外;他们对健康和疾病有不同的看法;他们不实行节育;他们往往缺乏免疫接种和产前护理等预防措施;他们可能使用各种传统和非传统的保健提供者。只有了解这个少数教派的宗教文化信仰体系，护理从业人员才能有效地满足他们的阿米什病人的医疗保健需求。
The religious and cultural beliefs of the Amish result in many health care beliefs and practices which are significantly different from the dominant American culture. For example, the Amish are excluded from social security and health insurance coverage; they have different perceptions of health and illness; they do not practice birth control; they often lack the preventive practices of immunizations and prenatal care; and they may use a variety of traditional and nontraditional health care providers. Only by understanding the religiocultural belief system of this minority religious sect can nurse practitioners effectively meet the health care needs of their Amish patients.
