简要总结
This is an eight-week pilot research study designed to test whether simple changes to the bedroom environment along with brief sleep hygiene strategies, can improve sleep in older adults who live alone, have memory concerns, and experience insomnia symptoms. Older adults may be eligible to participate. The intervention will take 8 weeks, which includes 1-2 in-person visits from the research team at the participant's residence (evaluate the bedroom environment, install participant-agreed bedroom changes, deliver target sleep hygiene strategy) and 2 virtual or telephone calls (support environmental and sleep hygiene strategies) over 8 weeks. Sleep and environment data will be collected at screening/baseline, mid-intervention (4-week) and post-intervention (8-week)

研究组 & 干预措施
Sleep Health Education
The control group receives a single in-person or virtual session that provides participants with printed and online sleep health education materials. This introductory session aims to equip participants with foundational knowledge about sleep hygiene. Following this initial session, participants will engage in eight weeks of self-directed practice, allowing the participants to apply the information learned at the participant's own pace.

主要结局
Feasibility of study and intervention
时间窗: Duration of study, approximately 2 years
Feasibility will be assessed by recruitment, retention, fidelity, and safety over the study period, with progression thresholds: ≥70% eligible enrollee ≥85% retained to Week 8, treatment fidelity (coaching delivered ≥80%), and no serious intervention-related adverse events.
Subjective sleep quality as assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)
时间窗: Baseline, 4-weeks, 8-weeks
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a 19-item self-report measure of overall sleep quality and disturbances over the past 30 days. It includes seven component scores-subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, use of sleep medication, and daytime dysfunction-each scored 0-3 (0 = no difficulty; 3 = severe difficulty). Component scores are summed to a global score (0-21), with higher scores indicating worse sleep quality; the global score will be used in the analysis
