May 8, 2012, MT. LAUREL, NJ - The Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society™ (WOCN^®) upcoming 44th Annual Conference, June 9-13, 2012 at the Charlotte Convention Center, Charlotte, North Carolina, exhibitor floor is sold out for the first time in conference history. In addition, there is still limited space available for interested nurses and exhibitors in the Society’s negotiated hotel room block.

Despite a 20% larger show floor for the WOCN exhibit program, space is sold out five weeks prior to the event. Exhibitors from new device and pharmaceutical manufacturers are offering the latest in patient education, fecal and urinary continence care, foot and nail care, ostomy care, wound care and professional WOC nurse practices - with some exhibitors offering exclusive purchasing arrangements to nurses in the Exhibit Hall.

"We appreciate this year's turn-out of leading exhibitors," said Joyce Pittman, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, CWOCN, and National Conference Planning Committee Chair. "We know attending our exhibit hall comes with some expense, and we do everything we can to work with our facilities, hotels, vendors and exhibitors in creating an environment of profitability and to help keep costs down for our nurses."
