General Dental Services (GDS) Reform Programme Principles, Expectations and Criteria

Programme approach - Involve key dental stakeholders to develop a NHS GDS Dental Reform Programme for Wales and adopt a continual improvement model.  Although the programme takes an Action Learning Approach, this is a National programme and as such there should be no variation between Health Boards in implementation of the programme. This applies to all practices engaged in the GDS Reform Programme.
