Performance measures to help Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program agencies monitor and improve the quality of care they deliver.
Oral health professionals (e.g., dentists, dental hygienists, dental assistants) deliver dental care to Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) patients under various RWHAP funding streams, particularly Part F Dental Programs. Resources on this website include curricula, tools and best practices to enhance the skills of staff in delivery of dental care to people living with HIV (PLWH).
