ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is focused on helping older adults improve their sleep and mindfulness, which can lead to better sleep quality, a higher quality of life, and improved thinking skills. The study is looking for people aged 55 and older who live in residential housing facilities, such as assisted living or nursing homes. However, individuals with severe cognitive difficulties, as determined by a specific test called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, are not eligible to participate.
If you or a loved one qualify for the study, you can expect to take part in activities designed to enhance sleep and mindfulness. This could involve group sessions or individual practices that encourage relaxation and better sleep habits. The trial is currently recruiting participants, and it aims to find ways to support the well-being of older adults. Your involvement could lead to valuable insights that benefit others in similar living situations.
