India is becoming an aging society as its population ages more quickly than the overall population.   Common problems that elderly people deal with include sleep disorders, eating or feeding problems, incontinence, dementia, depression, fall warning indicators, and skin disintegration.  One of the main causes of death for senior citizens is falls.  10% to 15% of all ED visits are caused by falls, which also account for 20% to 30% of mild to serious injuries.  Most injuries caused by falls happen at home.  Serious medical repercussions can also result from sleep issues.  A significant predictor of death and morbidity is insomnia.Lack of sleep can make mental and physical conditions worse.  Sleep difficulties are controllable, and falls among older individuals living in communities are frequently avoidable.  The development of a comprehensive care plan that offers older individuals preventive, curative, and rehabilitative therapies as well as supporting education for their caregivers is necessary.  In order to lessen the hardship of falls, sleep disturbances, and the issue of caregiver burden that older persons and their caregivers face, the nurse investigator developed a number of nursing intervention measures.
