Chief dental officer for England, Barry Cockcroft, has gone digital.

An e-version of his CDO update is now available online – to make it easier to reach dentists up and down the country.

The February issue is currently live and topics include the latest on contract reform, the outcome of the fluoridation JR and the forthcoming NHS Dental Services online portal launch for providers and performers.

Plus, there are all the usual regular updates from the Department of Health dental policy team – including a look at the adult dental health survey, decontamination and blood borne viruses and the latest on CQC registration.

To see February's issue, click here. The next issue is due out in April.

I'll bet it's a truly rivetting read. 'How we all believed in local commissioning. but suddenly decided it was a heap of c7@p soon after ZaNuLieBore (our previous bestest friends in the whole world) were kicked out by our newest bestest friends....'
Pathetic tosh.
Thank the Lord this buffoon doesn't have any relevance to my professional life any more.

At least the contract he championed has been so bad that it's being binned fairly quickly! (Apparently!)
Joker!

The guy is a clown with no academic credentials (unlike his pred. who probably saw the disast. "nectar point" system coming and resigned before its implementation).
The funny thing is how he has changed his tone in his CDO updates and is singing the praise of this goverments "Denplan on the cheap" (Thanks again Gordie) instead of the "UDA treadmill" ! There used to be something called "Dignity" !!!
