QOOL is a customisable clinical cancer application with data from over 60 sources. It supports routine data capture, patient-focused information sharing, and data analysis for quality, safety, and research in cancer care.

How does QOOL support cancer teams?

Multidisciplinary Teams

QOOL is a web-based system which supports cancer multidisciplinary teams by assisting meeting preparation, communication and documentation of essential clinical information such as diagnosis, cancer stage and recommended treatment plans. QOOL provides a centralised platform of patient data for multiple users, accessible anywhere, anytime.

Care Coordination

QOOL supports cancer care coordination by providing a module for referrals to care coordinators, psychosocial and clinical care coordination of patients, communication between facilities and data collection for the monitoring of care coordination.

Researchers

QOOL provides a project module which supports clinicians with data collection for research and quality activities. QOOL allows researchers to make use of centralised data from Queensland Oncology Repository (QOR) and provides pre-populated patient data.  The module assists with management of patients within projects and purpose built data extraction is available.
