"Imagine if I'm not here, what they're going to do?"-Health-care access and culturally and linguistically diverse women in prison.

The persistent use of peer interpreters in prison is complicated by the lack of clearly defined roles, which can include informal peer support roles and lay health advice. These are highly complex roles for which they are unlikely to be adequately trained or supported, despite perceived benefits to their use. Improved understanding and facilitation of health-related communication could enhance equity of access for CALD women in prison.
