American University Amish Mennonites Presentation

 

  1. Provide a brief overview of the basic tenets of the religion. Consider the history, main beliefs, religious texts, major holidays, different sects, etc. 
  2. Describe health-related beliefs of the religion. Think about issues such as dietary restrictions, fasting, birth and death rituals, attitudes about alcohol and other drugs, sex, and contraception, etc. Provide at least three (3) health-related beliefs.
  3. Discuss concepts that a health care provider should know and suggestions to better serve people of your assigned faith group. Students should provide advice on how health professionals can better interact with people of their assigned faith group. A strong presentation would include an example of a program that has been used specifically for the specific population. Use Google! There are a lot of scholarly articles about health programs that target specific religious/faith groups. For example, consider how a diabetes program has been adapted for and used in a church-based program.
