5-6 hrs is good sleep as you age. Make sure he has his dose physical as well as mental exercise if retired.

ideally ask your father to decrease day time sleeping, and engage more in some physical activities for which he is fit. Hopefully he'll get a better sleep once he is in a more exhausted state.

it is also good to know if sleep is getting disturbed due to increased body fat (obesity) or other causes, which could be resolved with specific treatment.

He should be happy and satisfied if he can get  6-7 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Better to avoid any medication.
