The Symposium on Advanced Wound Care Spring   |   Wound Healing Society (SAWC   |   WHS) meeting features exciting new cutting-edge topics led by the most dynamic and influential educators in wound healing.  Be part of the movement and join your global community of difference makers at SAWC who are committed to providing better care and better outcomes.

SAWC takes place twice each year,   Spring and Fall.  The ACEWM Wound Management Special Interest Group (WMSIG) has a partnership with HMP Communications which allows the ACEWM to have a booth in the exhibit hall at the Spring conference and an exhibit table at the Fall conference.   ACEWM members also get a 15% discount on registration fees using a special code   at the time of registration.  If you are ready to register, and the code has not yet been announced through the WMSIG listserv, please reach out to the WMSIG leadership to receive your code.
