3. Purpose of the change proposal
4. PICOT
5. Literature search strategy employed
6. Evaluation of the literature
7. Applicable change or nursing theory utilized
8. Proposed implementation plan with outcome measures

could be overcome
10. Appendix section, if tables, graphs, surveys, educational materials, etc. are created
