Do Older People Need Less Sleep? It is a common misconception that older adults require less sleep than younger individuals. Many older adults have a hard time getting the sleep they need, but that does not mean they need less sleep. In general, adults should aim to get at least seven hours of sleep each night.
could it be older adults tend to have more things that trouble the mind, so it is harder to sleep longer?
