ADASA North West: The Vital Role of Sleep in Dementia Care.

Sleep is more than just rest; it's a critical component of health, especially for a person living with dementia. While sleep disturbances are common, understanding their impact can help us provide better care and improve daily quality of life.

Why Quality Sleep Matters:

When a person with dementia gets enough restorative sleep, we often see positive changes that make a significant difference. Quality sleep directly supports:

💜Cognitive Clarity: It aids memory consolidation and helps clear brain fog, leading to moments of greater alertness and connection.

💜Emotional Regulation: Proper sleep helps stabilize mood, reducing agitation, anxiety, and confusion that can intensify with fatigue.

💜Physical Coordination: It supports motor skills and balance, which can help lower the risk of falls.

💜Long-Term Brain Health: During deep sleep, the brain’s own cleaning system becomes active, working to remove toxins that contribute to cognitive decline.

Recognising that sleep is a powerful, non-pharmacological tool in dementia care empowers us to create routines and environments that foster rest. By prioritising sleep, we are not just fighting fatigue - we are supporting our loved ones' overall well-being, moment by moment and day by day.

ADASA North West is here to help. If you are supporting a loved one with dementia and struggling with sleep issues, please reach out to our support services for guidance and resources.
