She needs to set regular bed time like go to bed at the same time every night. She must choose a time when she normally feel tired, so that she don't toss and turn. Warm milk before bed time help us sleep better. It works for my mum. She has to exercise more during the day.

My mother is a little bit like that too, she sleeps at 6pm then wakes at 10pm and has a hard time getting back to sleep. Usually she sleeps back at 2am but wakes up again at 4am. It's a bit tiring for her but she can't control it maybe because she's 65 years old and it's natural for her age. She sleeps a lot during the day because of this. Now she reads magazines and listens to her radio whenever she's awake to help her feel sleepy. My brother has also given her a dvd player so she could watch movies and videos. I hope it's effective so that she will get the right amount of sleep that she needs.
