CNA Practice Test: Mental Health and Social Services Needs 1

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

Mental health and social well-being are critical components of patient care that every Certified Nursing Assistant must understand. This practice test features 30 multiple-choice questions designed to prepare you for the CNA examination in 2024.

Your role as a CNA goes beyond physical care; you are often the first to observe changes in a client’s mental and emotional state. This test will help you deepen your understanding of mental health issues and how to provide compassionate support.

Key topics covered in this test include:

  • Understanding the stages of grief and loss
  • Caring for clients with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease
  • Recognizing signs of depression and providing appropriate care
  • Assisting clients from diverse cultural and religious backgrounds
  • Managing challenging behaviors such as agitation and demanding actions
  • Supporting clients experiencing suicidal thoughts

Each question presents a realistic scenario that requires thoughtful consideration. Read each question carefully and select the best answer from the four options provided. If you need assistance, use the Hint button for guidance. Detailed explanations are available for each question to enhance your learning experience, especially if you select an incorrect answer.

This practice test is an excellent tool to assess your knowledge and identify areas for further study. You are encouraged to retake the test to build confidence and ensure mastery of the material.

When you feel ready, begin the test to evaluate your understanding of mental health and social services needs. Your commitment to learning these crucial aspects of care is essential for your success as a compassionate and effective CNA.

Best of luck on your journey to certification!
