There is nothing to 'implement'. Page mode flash has a timing parameter indicating the time to the first read, and then the time for subsequent reads within a page to return. If you are interfacing to this flash using a processor local bus controller, then you generally only have one read timing parameter you can configure. In that case, you would have to configure the local bus controller read timing of the processor to the flash worst-case value, i.e., the timing for the read of the first word in a page. If you are interfacing to the flash using an FPGA, then you can exploit this feature. For example, I use this feature to get optimal read timing from a FPGA configuration controller. See p30, Figure 12. http://www.ovro.caltech.edu/~dwh/carma_board/fpga_configuration.pdf That figure should clarify what page mode means. The example design uses S29GL512N11TF020 parts.
