DIRECTIONS
This is the final revision of your “Design for Change Assignment”. The final consists of your revised Design for Change draft, incorporated peer review feedback, and the contribution your project will make to the future of healthcare.

2. Integrate the feedback received in from your peers in Milestone # 3 and your professor in Milestone #2.
3. The format for this proposal will be a paper following APA 6th edition.
4. The paper is to be 5-7 pages excluding Title page and Reference page.
5. As you organize your information and evidence, include the following topics:
a. Introduction – to the plan with evidence-based problem identification and solution.
b. Description of the contribution to the future of healthcare, inclusive of the stakeholders.
c. Change Plan overview using the six steps of the Rosswurm and Larrabee Model (1999).
i. Assess need for change
ii. Link problem-intervention-outcomes
iii. Synthesize best evidence (literature review)
iv. Design practice change
v. Implement and evaluate change (evaluation must be measureable and time bound)
vi. Integrate and maintain change
d. Evaluation Plan
e. Next Steps to maintain the change
6. Citations and References must be included to support the information within each topic area. Refer to the APA manual – Chapter 7 – for examples of proper reference format. Citations are to be noted for all information contained in your paper that is not your original idea or thought. Ask yourself “how do I know this?” and then cite the source. Scholarly sources are expected, which means using peer-reviewed journals and credible websites.
7. Tables and Figures may be added as appropriate to the project should be embedded within the body of the paper (see your APA manual for how to format and cite). Creating your own tables and figures offers visual aids to the reader and enhances understanding of your literature review and design for change.
