CNA Practice Test: Care of Cognitively Impaired Residents 1

Reviewed by Winona Suzanne Ball, Nursing Adviser, RN | MHS, Governors State University, IL, Full member of the American Nurses Association.

These 20 questions will help you prepare for the 2024 CNA examination. The questions are based on the categories that are included in the exam. They are similar (and often identical) to the actual questions that you will be asked. Each question has been researched and the answer verified. One of the most important and satisfying jobs for a CNA is to work with clients who have mental or emotional disabilities. These clients are often residents in a long-term care facility. They rely on caring, supportive professionals who can treat them with dignity and respect. Once you learn to assist residents with cognitive impairments, you can build positive relationships with these special clients. Topics covered in this practice test include the following:
  • How to assist a client who is confused
  • Dealing with aggressive and combative behavior
  • Helping a client with Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
  • Supporting clients with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Each question is multiple choice with four answer options. Read the question carefully and select the best answer. If you are not sure, click on the Hint button under the options to read a hint that can help you choose the correct answer. If you still miss the question, an explanation will pop up to help you understand. If you miss more than four questions, you can restart the test and try again. Good luck!
