Palos Verdes elder caregivers for quality of life

Most people know that the basics of living: sleep, diet, and exercise are cornerstones to good health. But do you know just how important it is to get a good night's rest?

Researchers point out that the effects of sleep deprivation can be akin to imbibing alcohol or drugs. While children may need as much as 10 hours of sleep a night, elders require less sleep. Seniors should expect to get 6 hours of high quality rest each night.

A-1 Home Care has Palos Verdes Senior Caregivers who can assist in a good nights rest. We favor using natural remedies such as lavender, soothing tea or melatonin supplements for help with sleep.
