.April 10 - 12, 2008 at the Opryland Hotel & Convention Center, Nashville Tennessee

For 2008, we've expanded our offerings yet again and will feature 72 lectures and 5 early-bird breakfast workshops that will impart the very latest information in Adult and Pediatric/Neonatal ICU Nursing, Adult, Pediatric, and Neonatal Pulmonary Medicine, as well as in Sleep Medicine, Management, Patient Education, Homecare and Holistic Medicine - a well-rounded agenda with something for everyone. All lectures will be presented by the country’s top physician lecturers and by Masters and PhD prepared Nurses and Respiratory Therapists. Nurses will be able to obtain 18-20 continuing education credits at this conference.

Like to Party?

The 8th annual FOCUS Conference will provide fun and entertainment the likes of which have never been seen at a medical conference. Our exhibit hall will feature 150+ medical companies and recruiters and will be a "festival" with caricature artists, live music, fantastic receptions, a free breakfast, a free lunch and phenomenal door prizes including a chance to win a 2008 Ford Focus automobile or $10,000 cash - your choice. We'll also be enjoying a gala evening at the world famous Grand Ole' Opry! We've procured excellent seats for all attendees - and again, this special night is included in everyone's registration fee.

Affordability Is The Name of The Game

What makes this conference so special is the fact that this incredible program has a registration fee of only $325, the lowest fee of any such national conference and an incredible value when considering how much is included in the fee. We are proud to say that every aspect of attending this conference, from the registration fee, to the airlines, to the hotel accomodations, to the entertainment, has been approached from the perspective of affordability for attendees.

Explore the various aspects of this incredible conference. Check out the topics, the speakers, the optional workshops, the entertainment and the festivities we'll have in the exhibit hall. Register on-line via our secure on-line system or print out a registration form for yourself and your friends and join us.
In fact, bring your "significant other" for only $175 to enjoy every aspect of the conference with you (except CEUs). Nashville is a great city, one that's fun and very affordable.

Oh, we almost forgot! Those who attended our seventh conference last year in Nashville receive $50 off their registration fee for 2008. So, obtain your continuing education credits and party with us this coming April 10-12, 2008 in Nashville... See you there!
