Sleep consistency : It is also important to keep regular sleep patterns while on night shift to help your body and circadian rhythm adjust effectively. Frequent changes in sleep patterns from week to week or day to day (e.g., on days you are off or if the shift frequently changes) can be problematic for achieving restful sleep. Be well.
