FEST SMACC Chicago will be more than just the best Critical Care Conference in 2015, it will be a true Festival. A celebration of medical science, patient focused care, innovative ideas and our critical care community.

The SMACC experience begins long before the conference starts, with a registered delegate function on the website that allows you to become part of “smacc-networks”. The networks cater to academic, social, artistic, sporting and lifestyle interests and are aimed at bringing delegates together. Utilising dating site technology you can find new friends from the world-wide critical care community who share your interests. You may want to talk shop or to get a group together to perhaps visit a museum, go for a run together or go to a Chicago Cubs game. Once you check into The SMACC Hotel, Sheraton Towers, you will immediately be drawn into the SMACC festival experience. The preconference workshops will be held at the Sheraton and it will be an offcampus SMACC hub with daily bus transfers to McCormick Place. Finally registration for the conference is fully inclusive of all coffee breaks, lunch and both the Welcome Reception and the Gala Dinner. This will create ample time to network with colleagues and soak up the atmosphere. The SMACC Gold Conference in 2014 not only brought together a diverse group of critical care practitioners (Emergency Physicians / Intensivists / Anaesthetists / Rural and Pre-Hospital Specialists / Critical Care Nurses and Paramedics) it united the biggest names from FOAM websites from around the world. In June 2015 ‘SMACC Chicago’ will be even better.
