An exploration of the Relationships, Roles and Reality that impact on the coordination of the Cancer patients journey.

The Clinical Oncological Society of Australia (COSA) and Queensland Health invite you to attend the 2010 Cancer Care Coordination Conference at the Crown Plaza, Surfers Paradise, Queensland on 24-26 March 2010.
While Australian cancer treatment outcomes are statistically among the world’s best, patients have consistently reported difficulties accessing coordinated care. To meet this need, cancer care professionals, healthcare administrators and consumers are developing the role of Cancer Care Coordinator, with dedicated positions established in several jurisdictions.
The conference will provide a unique opportunity to advance the important work of these stakeholder groups in all jurisdictions. It will feature:
• the latest information on best practice in Cancer Care Coordination;
• evaluations of, and coalface perspectives on, current Cancer Care Coordinator roles;
• the development of joint criteria to embed the role as a recognised part of the system; and
• forums for all stakeholders to contribute to the development of cancer care coordination.
With expert presentations, the latest research and interactive workshops, the conference will be vital to clinical and non-clinical professionals, consumers, funding agencies and policy-makers.

Thankyou for the support from our Primary Sponsor, Queensland Health.
