CNA Practice Test: Personal Care Skills 1

Personal care skills are at the core of a Certified Nursing Assistant’s daily duties. This practice test offers 40 multiple-choice questions to thoroughly prepare you for the CNA examination in 2025.

In your role as a CNA, you’ll provide essential support to patients who depend on you for their comfort, dignity, and well-being. From assisting with basic needs like dressing and eating to offering emotional support to families, your contributions make a significant difference in the lives of those you serve.

This test covers practical topics you’ll encounter regularly, including:

  • Proper techniques for bathing and showering residents
  • Oral care, including teeth and denture maintenance
  • Dressing and transferring patients with one-sided weakness
  • Effective communication with clients who have hearing or vision impairments
  • Managing incontinence and providing appropriate skin care
  • Understanding the unique needs of diabetic patients

Each question is designed to reflect real-life situations, providing four answer options for you to choose from. Read each question carefully and select the best answer. If you’re unsure, the Hint button is available to guide you toward the correct choice. Detailed explanations accompany each question to enhance your understanding, especially if you select an incorrect answer.

We recommend taking this practice test in a quiet environment to simulate the actual exam experience. You can retake the test as many times as you like to build confidence and ensure mastery of the material. Each attempt will rearrange the questions to keep the practice fresh.

When you’re ready, begin the test to assess your knowledge of personal care skills. Your dedication to mastering these essential competencies is vital for your success as a compassionate and effective CNA.
