“The Senior Sleep Solution: A Guide to Improving Sleep in Later Life” explains the science of sleep in an engaging and accessible manner and arms older adults and caregivers with the tools needed to identify and remedy potential sleep disturbances.

Plano, Texas (PRWEB) August 13, 2013 - Home Care Assistance of Plano, a leading provider of in-home care in Texas, proudly announces the release of its newest book, The Senior Sleep Solution: A Guide to Improving Sleep Later in Life. Sleeping well is important to physical and mental wellbeing at every age. Older adults who don’t sleep well are more likely to suffer from depression, attention and memory problems, excessive daytime sleepiness and nighttime falls. Their caregivers are also at a higher risk for experiencing sleep problems. As adults age, sleep patterns may change—older adults tend to have more difficulty falling and staying asleep than they did in their younger years. The prevalence of many sleep disorders, such as insomnia and sleep apnea, also tends to increase with age. The Senior Sleep Solution explores some common causes of chronic sleep disturbance among seniors and provides guidance for older adults and their loved ones to re-establish and maintain a restful sleep pattern, and in doing so, improve overall quality of life.

“Sleep is so fundamental to our lives but we often overlook its importance,” said Ken Baker, Owner of Home Care Assistance of Plano. “This book helps us focus on the profound impact of sleep on health and happiness as we age and gives practical advice for improvement.”

The Senior Sleep Solution is already being hailed by many in the aging industry as the go-to resource for information about the sleep process as we age. The book is divided into three sections. The first describes the multiple stages of sleep and potential theories on the purpose of sleep. The second sheds light on common barriers to quality sleep as we age, including various sleep disorders and dementia. The final section of the book offers evidence-grounded and easily applied methods to reduce sleep disturbances and improve sleep quality.

This book is the latest in the Home Care Assistance award-winning Healthy Longevity Book Series, designed to address the various challenges facing the aging population and provide well-researched advice to ensure healthy and successful aging at home. Topics covered in previous books include scientifically-based lifestyle choices to promote healthy longevity, best practices for providing quality care for an aging loved one in the home, hospital discharge and post-hospitalization care at home, understanding how the five senses evolve as we age and adopting a multi-faceted approach to dementia care.

The Senior Sleep Solution is available on Amazon.com and at the Plano office located at 1501 Preston Rd, #500. For more information about Home Care Assistance and the company’s expertly trained caregivers, please visit http://www.HomeCareAssistanceDFW.com or call 469-248-2162.
