To Our Professional Colleagues, We are delighted to invite you to join the Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses (WOCN) Society at the 38th Annual Conference in Minneapolis, Minn., June 24-28, 2006. This gathering is the largest meeting of wound, ostomy, and continence nursing practitioners and researchers in the world. This year’s theme, “Learn. Teach. Change.” is certainly appropriate. Throughout the conference you will enhance your clinical knowledge and learn the latest advances in wound, ostomy, and continence issues while networking with colleagues and industry professionals. A new lasting-value feature this year — audio and visual presentations — will be available for review and purchase, allowing you to share concurrent sessions with others when you return home. We are receiving overwhelming interest in abstract submissions this year from many excellent candidates. More than 50 speakers will address current issues facing the WOC nursing world and these will be explored at this conference in the various general sessions, concurrent sessions, workshops, and symposia. Continuing education sessions will provide you with the opportunity to learn from top clinical experts how to address health care problems relating to all age groups. Topics will encompass presentations on care in a variety of health care settings, including primary, acute, and home care. For early arrivals, there is an exciting pre-conference program, a half or full-day schedule on Saturday. Special thanks to our strategic partners and sponsors:
