The National Health Act of 1939/Basic Standards of Hospital Dental Service as a Fundamental Requirement of Approved Class “A” Hospitals* * Compiled by the Committee on Community Dental Service of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, John Oppie McCall, D.D.S., chairman, New York City, and the Subcommittee on Dental Standards and Services in Hospitals and Institutions: Waldo H. Mork, D.D.S., New York City; Henry C. Slatoff, D.D.S., New York City; C. Raymond Wells, D.D.S., Brooklyn, N. Y., and Malcolm W. Carr, D.D.S., chairman, New York City. This report is submitted as a first step toward the development of a systematized plan for dental service in the hospital. It is hoped that it may be adopted as one of the requisites for Class A grading of hospitals. As hospital dental service is further developed, revision of this report will be undertaken. The procedures recommended have been worked out for large hospitals and have been demonstrated to be sound in actual practice. Small hospitals can readily modify the procedures to suit conditions without abrogation of the principles laid down.
