Answer:

The main issues that arose in the women’s prison in relation to health care are:

- Prison rules and personnele delayed the provision of care to the prisoners, and that lead the inmates to try and treat themselves.

- There was mistrust of the prison medical staff.

- There was a lack of sanitation and not enough healthy food.

- The prisoners lived in very crowed conditions.

- Poverty reflected on the limited access to health care.

- Medical neglect that lead to unecessary deaths.

Anthopoloists can help by using ethnography.
