CNA Practice Test: Care of Cognitively Impaired Residents 2

Each branch of medical care requires particular skills and abilities. A CNA may work with clients who have cognitive impairments from conditions such as strokes, dementia, or Alzheimer’s disease. These clients are often residents in a long-term care facility or a memory care unit. Their needs can be challenging, but the job can be rewarding. Many CNAs choose to work with these special residents in rehabilitation or memory care units for much of their careers. On the CNA examination, there can be about 3–6 questions on cognitively impaired patients, depending on which testing service your state uses for the CNA examination. Knowing good communication skills and basic care skills will help you answer these questions correctly.
This practice test will help you prepare for the CNA examination with practice questions on some of these topics:

Situations that are helpful when working with residents with dementia
Helping a resident with Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
Examples of reality orientation therapy
Supporting clients with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease

These practice questions are like those on the CNA exam. Each practice question is multiple choice with four answer options. Read the question carefully and select the best answer. Need a hint? Click on the Hint button under the fourth choice. A hint will appear to give you a clue about which option is correct. If you still make the wrong selection, we’ll show you an explanation that will help you remember the correct answer. We hope you will take each test several times. Each time, the questions will be arranged in a different order, just as with flashcards. In this way, you will learn better and remember more. You may take each test as many times as you wish to enhance your knowledge. Good luck!
