The lack of adequate sleep can have adverse effects on an older person’s health and overall sense of well-being. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a valuable aid to investigate areas that can affect the quality and quantity of sleep.  It includes a careful measurement of bedtime, time to get to sleep, wake-up time, hours of sleep, barriers to getting or staying asleep, and the use of sleep medications.  The results gathered from the assessment can help care providers to start a dialogue that leads to an effective care plan with appropriate, individualized interventions.  This assessment test can be self-administered or completed through an interview process.  (Part of a 28-DVD training series.)
