The conversation around sleep in care homes has traditionally focused on comfort and wellbeing, yet emerging evidence suggests the consequences of persistent sleep disruption may extend much further into long-term health, resilience and quality of life.

That raises an important question about whether protecting sleep should be considered just as important as protecting nutrition, hydration and mobility for older people.

This short animation explores why sleep is becoming an increasingly important topic across care.

Many care homes are beginning to realise that some residents thought to be “unsettled overnight” were actually sleeping far more peacefully than expected.

At The Lawns, understanding overnight sleep and movement patterns contributed towards:
• 88% fewer high-risk falls
• 61% fewer physical checks
• 5 staff hours released overnight

The biggest surprise was not the technology. It was how much unnecessary disruption had quietly become normal overnight.

Because when residents rest better, many homes are seeing wider changes in wellbeing, stability and quality of life.

It's one thing to say a resident is safe, it is another to know they are properly resting and feeling well.

When that happens, everything else improves, from fewer risks to more time for staff to provide care when it matters.
