Symposium on Advanced Wound Care and Wound Healing Society (SAWC/WHS Spring). The Symposium on Advanced Wound Care and Wound Healing Society (SAWC/WHS) Spring meeting is the premier educational wound care program within this clinical field and is the largest annual gathering of wound care clinicians in the United States. More than 2,000 physicians, podiatrists, nurses, therapists, and researchers attend each year to receive CME/CE credits and may choose from seven program tracks aimed at meeting their multidisciplinary wound care educational needs. The SAWC/WHS partnership reflects the need for clinicians to better understand the research and science behind wound management for optimal patient outcomes. In addition, it is the official meeting of the Association for the Advancement of Wound Care (AAWC) — the preeminent multidisciplinary organization for wound care.
Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC Fall). The Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC Fall) meeting was launched in 2009 — nearly 700 physicians, podiatrists, nurses, therapists, scientists from academia and allied healthcare professionals attended the inaugural show. Educational opportunities are provided in a variety of formats and venues; interactive, hands-on, and classroom-style offerings facilitate acquisition of the latest evidence-based information from the most widely regarded wound care experts in the world. The rationale behind launching a second SAWC was internal research showing the majority of SAWC/WHS Spring attendance comes from a 300- to 500-mile radius of the event. Therefore, many wound care clinicians were missing the opportunity to attend SAWC/WHS each spring. HMP will be strategic in selecting venues and locations for the SAWC/WHS each spring and for the SAWC Fall to ensure optimal, non-duplicative attendance.
