Sleep disruptions are commonly reported during and after cancer. In addition to its immediate relevance for patients' immunity and response to treatment, poor sleep can also affect their psychological health and, ultimately, quality of life. Sleep disturbances can also affect caregivers who are supporting cancer patients, adding to their burden. Therefore, it is important for both patients and their families to receive personalized advice and assistance to improve sleep quality. Research has demonstrated that providing intervention for sleep difficulties early in the care trajectory of cancer patients can enhance satisfaction with care and reduce depression. In this article, we will outline basic practical tips that oncology nurses can offer to patients experiencing sleep difficulties, ranging from basic sleep hygiene practices to rearranging their bedroom environment for better rest.
