This is a DNP Capstone paper. This DNP project examined what effect a community based sleep hygiene education program had on the quantity and quality of sleep in rural adults. Participants received a 45 minute oral PowerPoint presentation on sleep hygiene and were given an educational handout. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire was used to subjectively evaluate a participant’s sleep habit pre- and post-intervention (Buysse et al., 1989). Strong evidence suggests that the sleep hygiene intervention improves the overall PSQI global scores and overall quality of sleep. A paired sample t test was calculated to compare the means of differences between pre- and post-global PSQI intervention scores. The means of differences was 2.44, a statistically significant increase from the pretest to the final was found (t(8)= 4.859, p <0.001.
