My dad has Dementia and is not sleeping at night, he is in a home and they are finding it difficult to care for him. Don't know what to do, he is missing meals as falls asleep during day.

Do you know what medication he is taking ?

What he is taking and at what time during the day can have a huge impact on sleep patterns.

My lovely Mum had this problem.

His GP should be asked to review his medication. The home may not have considered this. It's worth a try.

Good luck.
