Candy Stripers (1978)

6.1/10 • 84 min • Comedy

Overview

At City Hospital, the traditional therapeutic ethos of the "laying on of hands" is in no danger of disappearing. The lovely young candy stripers Pam, Sharon, and Cindy labor to ensure every patient receives specialized and highly personal treatment, always delivered with the most detailed bedside manner. Their eager allegiance to the hippocratic oath doesn't stop with just the patients: the entire hospital staff benefits from their tender loving care. As much as these providers of extra-sensual healthcare enjoy their work, it's regularly at risk of being spoiled by the pesky and uptight Sarge, their staff coordinator. Since it's Sharon's last day on the job, the entire hospital staff has organized a big farewell bash, which promises to be a real ball -- that is, unless Sarge spoils the fun.
