See a doctor to assess the cause of the problem. The physician can find the possible health-related culprits of not getting enough zzzz’s at night (i.e., poor nutrition, anxiety, side effects from prescription medication, cardiovascular or neurological condition, depression, and so forth). There are also relaxation exercises (yoga, meditation, tai chi) that can help an elderly person who has trouble sleeping.
