QOOL for Cancer Care Coordinators (CCC) guide

Search for a patient

Search for an existing patient by first name, surname, UR (e.g., UR12345), date/year of birth (1/1/1956 or just 1956), or a combination of criteria. Using surname and year of birth yields the most accurate results.

For example:

Add a patient

Please keep the following information in mind:
It's unlikely that you will need to add a new patient because if a patient has visited any health facility in Queensland, they will be in QOOL, regardless of whether they have a cancer diagnosis or not. If not found on search add them by selecting "create new patient." To create a new patient, you need will need the patient’s name, date of birth, and sex at birth. 

Create a CCC service?

To create a new CCC Service in QOOL, go to Search Service, then Create New Service. Follow the prompts, specifying the CCC Name, Facility and Focus, the Service Administrator and start date. You can then customise datasets.

Refer a patient to your CCC service

• Once you find your patient in QOOL, select refer
• Follow the prompts, adding as much info as required. Then select save and finish.
• If you are the service administrator, or the Cancer Care Coordinator to who the patient is being referred (i.e. you are referring patients to yourself), the patient will be automatically added to your list. If another user has referred the patient to your service, you will need to accept or reject this referral. The referrer will receive an email advising
