1. What is the normal resting pulse range for a healthy adult, in beats per minute?
- A. 40 to 60
- B. 60 to 100
- C. 100 to 120
- D. 120 to 140
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. 60 to 100
A normal adult resting pulse is 60 to 100 beats per minute. A rate below 60 or above 100 should be reported to the nurse, along with whether the pulse felt regular, weak or bounding.
2. When is an alcohol-based hand rub NOT an acceptable substitute for washing with soap and water?
- A. Before entering a resident's room
- B. When your hands are visibly soiled
- C. After removing your gloves
- D. After touching a bed rail
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. When your hands are visibly soiled
Alcohol rubs do not remove visible dirt or body fluids, so hands that look or feel soiled must be washed with soap and running water. Soap and water are also required after caring for a resident with C. diff, because alcohol does not kill its spores.
3. Where should a gait belt be applied before a transfer?
- A. Around the chest, under the arms
- B. Around the waist, over the resident's clothing
- C. Around the waist, directly against bare skin
- D. Around the hips, below the buttocks
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. Around the waist, over the resident's clothing
The gait belt goes around the waist over clothing, snug enough that you can slide a flat hand underneath. Placing it on bare skin can pinch and bruise, and placing it under the arms or over the chest can restrict breathing.
4. Which of the following are part of standard precautions?
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. Wearing gloves whenever contact with blood or body fluids is likely
- B. Performing hand hygiene before and after every resident contact
- C. Placing used needles in a puncture-resistant sharps container
- D. Wearing gloves only for residents with a known infection
- E. Wearing the same gown for the next resident to save supplies

Svar: A. Wearing gloves whenever contact with blood or body fluids is likely, B. Performing hand hygiene before and after every resident contact, C. Placing used needles in a puncture-resistant sharps container
Standard precautions apply to every resident, all the time, because you cannot tell by looking who carries an infection. Gowns and gloves are single use and are removed before you leave the room, never carried to the next resident.
5. Complete the sentence.
If a resident starts to fall while you are walking with them, you should _____.
Muligheder for felt 1: hold them upright and try to stop the fall, ease them to the floor while protecting the head, step back and let them fall clear of you, pull them back up by one arm
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: ease them to the floor while protecting the head
You cannot safely stop a falling adult, and trying to injures both of you. Use the gait belt to guide the resident down along your leg, protect the head, then stay with them and call for the nurse.
6. A resident suddenly cannot speak, cough or breathe while eating. What should the CNA do?
- A. Encourage the resident to keep coughing
- B. Give abdominal thrusts and call for help
- C. Offer sips of water to wash the food down
- D. Lay the resident down and wait for the nurse
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. Give abdominal thrusts and call for help
No speech, no cough and no air means a complete airway obstruction, which calls for abdominal thrusts in a responsive adult. Encouraging coughing is right only for a partial obstruction, where the resident can still cough or make sound.
7. In the fire safety acronym RACE, what does the R stand for?
- A. Report the fire to the front desk
- B. Rescue anyone in immediate danger
- C. Remove all oxygen equipment
- D. Run to the nearest exit
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. Rescue anyone in immediate danger
RACE stands for Rescue, Alarm, Confine, Extinguish. You move anyone in immediate danger first, then pull the alarm, close doors to confine the fire, and only use an extinguisher on a small fire if you are trained and it is safe.
8. Which of the following actions respect a resident's rights and dignity during personal care?
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. Knocking and waiting for permission before entering the room
- B. Explaining what you are going to do before you start
- C. Closing the door and pulling the privacy curtain
- D. Discussing the resident's condition with coworkers in the hallway
- E. Choosing the resident's clothes for them to save time
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: A. Knocking and waiting for permission before entering the room, B. Explaining what you are going to do before you start, C. Closing the door and pulling the privacy curtain
Residents keep the right to privacy, to be informed and to make their own choices, including what to wear. Talking about a resident where others can hear breaks confidentiality, and deciding for a resident who is able to choose takes away their independence.
9. A CNA walks into a room and finds a resident lying on the floor beside the bed. What should the CNA do first?
- A. Help the resident back into bed right away
- B. Stay with the resident, call for the nurse and do not move them
- C. Look for the family before doing anything
- D. Finish the rest of the rounds and report it at the end of the shift
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. Stay with the resident, call for the nurse and do not move them
Moving a resident who may have a fracture or head injury can make the injury worse, so stay with them and get the nurse to assess first. Every fall is an incident that must be reported right away and documented on an incident report, even if the resident says they feel fine.
10. Complete the sentence.
When transferring a resident with one-sided weakness from the bed to a wheelchair, place the wheelchair on the resident's _____ side.
Muligheder for felt 1: weaker, stronger, left, right
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: stronger
Positioning the chair on the stronger side lets the resident lead with the leg and arm that can bear weight. Lock the wheels, put the footrests out of the way, and keep the transfer short by placing the chair close to the bed.
11. While performing passive range of motion exercises, the resident says a movement hurts. What should the CNA do?
- A. Push a little past the pain to keep the joint flexible
- B. Stop that movement and report the pain to the nurse
- C. Repeat the movement faster so it is over sooner
- D. Continue and mention it at the end of the shift
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. Stop that movement and report the pain to the nurse
Range of motion is moved only to the point of resistance, never through pain, because forcing a joint can tear tissue or cause a fracture. Stop the movement and report it, since new pain can be the first sign of an injury or another problem.
12. When giving perineal care to a female resident, the CNA should clean:
- A. From back to front
- B. From front to back
- C. In circles starting at the rectum
- D. From side to side, starting at the anus
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: B. From front to back
Wiping from front to back moves bacteria away from the urethra instead of toward it, which lowers the risk of urinary tract infection. Use a clean area of the washcloth for each stroke so you are not spreading what you just wiped away.
13. Which of the following are bony areas at high risk for pressure injuries?
Vælg alle, der passer.
- A. The sacrum, at the base of the spine
- B. The heels
- C. The hip, over the greater trochanter
- D. The abdomen
- E. The palms of the hands
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: A. The sacrum, at the base of the spine, B. The heels, C. The hip, over the greater trochanter
Pressure injuries form where bone presses skin against a surface, so the sacrum and heels are the classic sites for a resident lying on their back, and the hip is the classic site for side-lying. Soft, padded areas like the abdomen and palms carry far less risk, which is why repositioning at least every two hours targets the bony points.
14. Complete the sentence.
The average normal oral temperature for an adult is about _____ degrees Fahrenheit.
Muligheder for felt 1: 96.8, 97.6, 98.6, 100.4
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: 98.6
98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, or 37 degrees Celsius, is the standard average oral temperature, though normal varies a little by person and time of day. Site matters too: rectal readings run about a degree higher and axillary readings about a degree lower than oral.
15. A CNA notices unexplained bruises on a resident and sees the resident flinch when a particular staff member walks in. What must the CNA do?
- A. Report the observation to the nurse or supervisor immediately
- B. Watch for a few more days to be sure before saying anything
- C. Ask the other staff member privately what happened
- D. Write it down at home and keep it to themselves
Vis svar og forklaring
Svar: A. Report the observation to the nurse or supervisor immediately
Nursing assistants are mandatory reporters, and the duty is to report a suspicion, not a proven case. Investigating on your own delays protection for the resident and can destroy evidence, so pass the observation up the chain right away and document exactly what you saw.
Hvad CNA-prøven faktisk indeholder
CNA-certificeringsprøven har to adskilte dele, og du skal bestå dem begge. Den første er en skriftlig videnstest, som regel omkring 60 multiple choice-spørgsmål om plejefærdigheder, grundlæggende sygepleje, infektionshygiejne, sikkerhed, beboerrettigheder og kommunikation. Den anden er en praktisk færdighedsprøve, hvor en bedømmer ser dig udføre et lille sæt plejefærdigheder på en person eller en dukke og giver point for hvert påkrævet trin.
Prøven administreres af delstaten, så detaljerne fastsættes af din delstat og dens prøveudbyder, ikke af ét nationalt organ. Antallet af spørgsmål, tidsgrænsen, beståelsesgrænsen, hvor mange færdigheder du bliver bedt om at udføre, og hvor mange forsøg du får, varierer fra delstat til delstat. Mange delstater tilbyder også videnstesten mundtligt til kandidater, der læser langsomt eller læser bedre på et andet sprog. Slå tallene op i din egen delstats kandidathåndbog, for et tal du læser i et forum, kan være fra en anden delstat.
Én ting er næsten altid ens: håndvask er stort set altid en af de færdigheder, du bliver bedt om at vise, og springer du bare ét pointgivende trin over, for eksempel at lukke for hanen med et rent stykke papir, kan hele færdigheden falde. Den praktiske del belønner en fast rutine mere end den belønner viden, og derfor kan kandidater, der består den skriftlige test, stadig dumpe den praktiske, hvis de aldrig har øvet trinnene højt.
Sådan bruger du smagsprøven
De 15 spørgsmål træner kun den skriftlige del. De følger samme emnefordeling som videnstesten: vitale værdier og grundlæggende plejefærdigheder, personlig pleje og daglige aktiviteter, infektionshygiejne, sikkerhed og akutte situationer, beboerrettigheder og kommunikation plus den anatomi, du skal bruge for at give pleje sikkert. Intet her kan erstatte færdighedsprøven, som du er nødt til at øve med hænderne.
Tag den i ét stræk uden noter, og læs så forklaringen til hvert spørgsmål, også dem du svarede rigtigt på. Et forkert svar peger på et emne, ikke bare på ét faktum. Hvis du missede spørgsmålet om forflytningsbæltet og spørgsmålet om, hvor kørestolen skal stå, så repeter forflytningsteknik som helhed i stedet for at lære de to svar udenad.
Til den praktiske del skal du øve på en anden måde. Vælg én færdighed, sig trinnene højt i rækkefølge, og lad en medstuderende krydse dem af mod din delstats færdighedstjekliste. Gør det så igen mod uret. De trin, der oftest bliver glemt, er de stille: privatliv, håndhygiejne på de rigtige tidspunkter, at lægge kaldeanlægget inden for rækkevidde og at sænke sengen, før du går.
Sådan bygger StudyPDF fulde øveprøver ud fra dit eget materiale
Femten spørgsmål kan vise dig, hvilke områder der vakler. De kan ikke gøre dig klar alene, og generiske spørgsmålsbanker overser ofte det, som netop din uddannelse og din delstats tjekliste lægger vægt på.
StudyPDF arbejder ud fra dit materiale i stedet. Du uploader din CNA-lærebog, udleverede materialer fra timerne eller den færdighedstjekliste, din underviser har givet dig, og Bo, studieagenten, bygger fulde øveprøver ud fra præcis de sider. Hvert spørgsmål bygger på dit materiale, og hver forklaring henviser til hvor svaret kommer fra, så du kan tjekke kilden når noget ser forkert ud. Du kan lave nye prøver så tit du vil, holde dem på ét område som infektionshygiejne eller forflytning, og følge med i hvilke emner du bliver ved med at ramme forkert. Gratis at komme i gang.
