Sample General CNA Practice Practice Questions
Try these questions from our free General CNA Practice practice tests. The correct answer and an explanation follow each question.
Which practice helps break the chain of infection at the 'mode of transmission' link?
- A. Administering vaccines to residents
- B. Wearing gloves when handling body fluids
- C. Isolating immunocompromised residents
- D. Treating an existing infection with antibiotics
Answer: B. Wearing gloves when handling body fluids
Wearing gloves when handling body fluids is a barrier that interrupts how pathogens travel from reservoir to a new host.
The daughter of a resident is upset and tells the CNA, "You all are not taking good care of my father!" Which response best de-escalates the situation while remaining within the CNA's scope of practice?
- A. "That's not true, we provide excellent care here."
- B. "I'm sorry you feel that way, but we are very busy."
- C. "You should file a formal complaint with the administrator."
- D. "I understand you're concerned. Let me listen, and then I will get the nurse to speak with you."
Answer: D. "I understand you're concerned. Let me listen, and then I will get the nurse to speak with you."
This response validates the family member's feelings ('I understand you're concerned'), offers to listen, and correctly escalates the situation to the licensed nurse who is responsible for addressing care plan concerns. Being defensive, making excuses, or immediately jumping to a formal complaint are less effective and can escalate the conflict.
Which of the following represents the single most effective practice for preventing the spread of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs)?
- A. Wearing a gown for all resident interactions.
- B. Placing residents with infections in private rooms.
- C. Performing consistent and proper hand hygiene.
- D. Using dedicated equipment for each resident.
Answer: C. Performing consistent and proper hand hygiene.
According to the CDC, proper hand hygiene is the most important, easiest, and least expensive means of preventing the spread of infection. While other options are important infection control measures, they are secondary to consistent hand hygiene.
The definition of scope of practice is?
- A. All skills learned on the job or described by the nurse
- B. Any skills that the charge nurse requests you to perform
- C. Skills which the health care worker is legally able to perform
- D. Skills the CNA has seen and feels competent to perform
Answer: C. Skills which the health care worker is legally able to perform
A healthcare worker's scope of practice legally defines the specific procedures, actions, and tasks they are authorized to perform based on their education, training, and licensure. This legal framework ensures patient safety by preventing individuals from undertaking responsibilities for which they are not qualified. It is not determined by on-the-job learning, a nurse's request, or personal feelings of competence.
