Production

Director Allan Holleb had recently graduated from UCLA. Julie Corman gave him the job on this film after being impressed by a short film he had made. Barbara Peeters was second unit director.[2]

The movie downplayed the political element that featured in earlier nurses films in favour of humour, although it was still there.
