Appendix
The Doctoral Prospectus
The DHA Project Plan is a brief document that provides preliminary information about your doctoral research and is used in two ways:
1.
It serves as the tentative plan for developing the project and is evaluated to ensure doctoral-level work (e.g., feasibility, alignment, etc.).
2.
It provides information used to assign the projects mentors.
DHA Project Plan approval from the project mentor, project co-mentor, and a program-level designee is required for you to move forward and work on your
project. The plan is subject to change, and parts of your research design may need to be adjusted after you complete your exhaustive review of the literature
during proposal development.

How this relates to my study (1 sentence only):
How do these theories and/or concepts relate to your healthcare administration problem, purpose, and review question? (no more than 2-3 sentences)
Spread of evidence-based practices follows the diffusion of innovations which is the process through which an innovation, defined as an idea
perceived as new, spreads via certain communication channels over time among the members of a social system.
There are prerequisites that must be met to successfully spread innovations and best practices in a healthcare system. These processes also
determine the rate and speed of the spread. By improving the adoption rate of innovative, evidence-based practices for heart failure patient’s
readmission rate may be decreased.

Section 4: Significance Instructions and Example
Significance
Instructions: Here you explain how your study addresses the meaningful, discipline-specific issue that you identified and will therefore contribute to your
field, discipline, professional practice, etc. contributing to positive social change. Detail how your findings might support professional practice or allow
practical application (answer the So what? question).
How will your study address the meaningful, discipline-specific issue that you identified and therefore contribute to your field, discipline, professional
practice, etc. contributing to positive social change?
More information on helping rural hospital adopt and implement evidence-based practice strategies will decrease the 30-day readmission rate for
heart failure patients in rural hospitals.
Significance of study related to social determinants?
Proposing solutions for rural hospitals to reduce their 30-day readmission rates for heart failure patients will have a positive impact on patient
recovery, families and rural hospitals that serve their communities.
