ELLIS ANGELS is the heartwarming story about the compassionate nurses of Ellis Island Hospital, the ladies-in-white, and the loving care they gave their immigrant patients. Newly-arrived immigrants were facing numerous physical and emotional challenges after their long sea journey. If unable to pass medical inspection, they were admitted to Ellis Island Hospital for treatment or further evaluation. When Miss Angie, a nurse recruit, arrives and learns the hospital routine, she meets handsome Dr. Goodwin and Miss Adeline, an experienced nurse, who takes Miss Angie under her wing. Nursing Superintendent, Sister Gwendolyn, keeps a watchful eye on her entire nursing staff. Together, through their creativity and combined efforts, the nurses and doctors of Ellis Island Hospital discover ways to help their patients follow their dreams. In the process, they achieve their own American Dreams.
