Summary

This study tests an internet-based therapy program called the Sleep Course, designed to help public safety personnel (like police, firefighters, and paramedics) who have trouble sleeping. The program teaches skills to manage sleep difficulties and includes optional support from a therapist. Researchers want to see if people find it helpful and easy to use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (the Sleep Course)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could provide an accessible, effective way for public safety personnel to improve their sleep without needing in-person visits.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The therapy is self-guided online, so some people may not find it helpful or may drop out.
