Introduction<br />
Welcome to MOSAIQ <strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncology</strong> <strong>Nurses</strong> <strong>Training</strong>. This book is your guide<br />
to unlocking the possibilities of the MOSAIQ 1.20 application software, hereafter<br />
referred to as MOSAIQ. It is designed to be used during your instructor-led training,<br />
and as a handy desk reference any time you need a quick reminder how to do<br />
something in MOSAIQ. We recommend that you keep this book near your<br />
workstation so you can find it easily when needed.<br />
This training guide is not intended to replace the MOSAIQ documentation, which is<br />
contained in the MOSAIQ Help system. The MOSAIQ Help system provides indepth<br />
information on all available MOSAIQ features.<br />
<strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncology</strong> <strong>Nurses</strong> <strong>Training</strong> is a Basic course that covers how to use MOSAIQ.<br />
This course assumes that you have basic Windows skills and have taken, and are<br />
familiar with, the concepts presented in MOSAIQ General Introduction training.<br />
Topics presented in this course build upon the concepts learned in the General<br />
Introduction.<br />
What’s In This Course<br />
In this course, you will learn the basics of MOSAIQ, register patients, patient<br />
diagnosis and intervention, view and create staff and location schedules, capture and<br />
review codes, access the Medications Formulary, and access allergies and alerts. You<br />
will also learn how to edit medications, display the Follow-Up Status Summary<br />
window, display the Documents window, use Quality Checklists, explore Clinical<br />
Trials, generate Orders, display patient vital signs and laboratory results, customize<br />
vital signs and laboratory and assessment forms, and use Care Plans.<br />
This course will not teach you basics on using MOSAIQ, which are covered in the<br />
General Introduction.<br />
Note that when you are working in the practice database, all activities are enabled for<br />
the practice ID. In your clinical database, you may or may not have security rights to<br />
do all the activities that you will do in this course.

commands that you use to execute MOSAIQ features. All MOSAIQ functions are<br />
executed from menus.<br />
Many of the functions in MOSAIQ require you to select a patient in advance. If you<br />
attempt to perform a function that requires a patient chart to be open, a selection<br />
window automatically displays from which you can choose a patient.<br />
To select an existing patient, you must have Administrative |<br />
General | View rights.<br />

Pain, developed by a private sector panel of health<br />
care providers and consumers. Selected evaluation<br />
and pain management aspects for adults with<br />
cancer pain are available. Topics covered include<br />
initial assessment, pharmacologic treatment,<br />
medication administration, medications' side<br />
effects, adjuvant medications, cognitivebehavioral<br />
interventions, and discussion of other<br />
more invasive palliative techniques.
<strong>Nurses</strong> <strong>Training</strong> <strong>Guide</strong><br />
Notes ICD-O Morphology Optional: provides a complete hypertext list of<br />
the ICD-O morphology terms and their<br />
corresponding five-digit code numbers as defined<br />
within the ICD-O, International Classification Of<br />
Diseases For <strong>Oncology</strong>, Second Edition. Each<br />
morphologic term appears only once. The first<br />
term listed under a particular code is the preferred<br />
term and is consistent with the terms as displayed<br />
in the morphology tables.<br />
Topography Codes Optional: provides a mapping of the ICD-O<br />
(International Classification of Diseases for<br />
<strong>Oncology</strong>), ICD-9-CM, and SEER (Surveillance,<br />
Epidemiology, and End Results Program) codes<br />
and descriptions. The information is consistent<br />
with the Standards of the Commission on Cancer<br />
as described in Volume II of the ROADS<br />
(Registry Operations And Data Standards)<br />
manual. If Laterality or Size reporting for a site is<br />
required, or if Grade is used to assign the AJCC<br />
stage group, then these requirements are noted in<br />
the mapping tables.<br />
TNM Staging Optional: provides complete hypertext versions of<br />
the TNM Staging data forms presented in the<br />
UICC/AJCC Manual for Staging of Cancer, 6th<br />
edition. Each electronic data form presents, in<br />
order, the TNM Definitions, Stage Grouping,<br />
Histopathology, Illustrations, and Applicable<br />
ICD-O Codes. The TNM system for describing<br />
the anatomic extent of disease is based on the<br />
assessment of three components: T (the extent of<br />
the primary tumor), N (the absence or presence<br />
and extent of regional lymph node metastasis, and<br />
M (the absence or presence of distant metastasis).<br />

Objectives<br />
You will learn how to:<br />
• View Staff Schedule<br />
• Manage Appointments<br />
• Manage Wave Appointments<br />
• Schedule Locations<br />
• Create and Configure Daysheets<br />
Scheduling tracks staff appointments from information entered into the Staff field on<br />
the Appointment Slip. This field not intended to track the patient's physician; it is<br />
intended to track the staff member responsible for carrying out the appointment. For<br />
example, if a consultation is scheduled, the Staff field would contain a physician's name<br />
and that appointment would appear on the specified physician's Staff schedule.<br />
In this lesson, you will view staff schedules, adding appointments to the schedule, edit<br />
and delete appointments, schedule and view pending appointments, set appointment<br />
status, and print a patient’s schedule.<br />
To create and/or modify a recurring appointment, you must<br />
have Scheduling | General | Modify rights.<br />
To print a schedule, you must have Scheduling | General |<br />
