✍️ Sample TRIVIUM Questions & Answers

1. Which type of fire extinguisher is appropriate for an electrical equipment fire in a healthcare facility?

✓ Class C (dry chemical or CO2)

Class C extinguishers use non-conductive agents such as CO2 or dry chemical and are rated for energized electrical fires.

2. A patient develops tolerance to a drug. This means:

✓ Increased doses are needed to achieve the same effect

Tolerance occurs when the body adapts to a drug over time, requiring higher doses to produce the original therapeutic effect.

3. When performing a sterile dressing change, what is the correct order of steps?

✓ Open supplies using sterile technique, don sterile gloves, then clean the wound

Sterile supplies must be opened and the sterile field established before donning sterile gloves to maintain asepsis throughout the procedure.

4. Which of the following is the best example of factual, objective documentation?

✓ Resident refused lunch tray and stated, 'I'm not hungry'

Quoting the resident's own words and describing observable behavior is objective and factual, avoiding staff interpretation or bias.

5. Which element is MOST important when delivering bad news to a patient?

✓ Choosing a private, quiet setting for the conversation

A private setting protects patient dignity, allows for emotional expression, and reduces distractions during difficult conversations.

6. A patient is experiencing an insulin reaction (hypoglycemia) and is still conscious and able to swallow. What should the aide do first?

✓ Give 15–20 grams of fast-acting carbohydrate (e.g., juice)

For a conscious hypoglycemic patient who can swallow, the immediate intervention is oral fast-acting carbohydrates to quickly raise blood glucose.
