Caring for cognitively impaired residents is a profound responsibility that requires empathy, patience, and specialized knowledge. This practice test comprises 20 multiple-choice questions designed to prepare you for the CNA examination in 2025.

Working with clients who have mental or emotional disabilities can be one of the most rewarding aspects of being a Certified Nursing Assistant. You’ll often interact with residents in long-term care facilities who depend on you for compassionate support and daily assistance. Your role is crucial in enhancing their quality of life and ensuring they are treated with dignity and respect.

This test focuses on essential topics such as:

  • Techniques for assisting confused or disoriented clients
  • Strategies for managing aggressive or combative behaviors
  • Supporting clients with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)
  • Providing care for residents with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease

Each question reflects real-world scenarios you may encounter in your role. Read each one carefully and choose the best answer from the four options provided. If you’re uncertain, the Hint button offers guidance to help you think through the question. Detailed explanations accompany each answer to reinforce your understanding, particularly if you make an incorrect selection.

This practice test is an excellent opportunity to assess your knowledge and identify areas where you may need further study. Retaking the test can help build your confidence and ensure you’re well-prepared for the exam.

When you feel ready, begin the test to evaluate your skills in caring for cognitively impaired residents. Your dedication to mastering these competencies is vital for providing high-quality care and making a meaningful difference in the lives of your clients.
