They sent someone out with a list of 30 or so titles and Candy Stripe Nurses got the most votes...They wanted a little social consciousness, a little romance, a little comedy and a little sex.

Holleb says Julie Corman gave the board of directors an expurgated copy of the script under the title of Angels of Mercy to get permission.

"[11] Diabolique magazine said that "Rialson is vivacious and cheerful, delivering comic lines with aplomb and seeming almost wholesome as she constantly takes her clothes and off hops into bed with various men – she makes nudity and sex appear like natural, clean fun, never sleazy; you only wish she had a better storyline.
