Summary

The goal of this project evaluate the efficacy of NiteCAPP in improving insomnia in a rural dementia caregiver sample (n of 100 caregiver and PWD dyads).

NiteCAPP CARES

Web-based intervention that will include 4 weekly sessions and 4 bimonthly boosters.

Session 2 focuses on sleep compression, relaxation, and problem solving. Session 3 focuses on coping and stress management and cognitive therapy. Session 4 focuses on a review of skills and plan for maintenance of behavior change.
