entering a resident's room on each and every occasion during a shift. Restocking the

B. Self-esteem

C. Safety and security

D. Physical - CORRECT ANSWER D. Physical

WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS
The CNA should not comment on medical procedures or diagnostic information. The
patient has a right to privacy. When a family member asks about a patient's care or
health, help the family and ask the nurse on duty to speak with them about a
procedure of this kind.



A patient is refusing to drink fluids even though he is beginning to show signs of
dehydration (concentrated urine, headache, sunken eyes, low energy). What should
the CNA do?

A. Tell the patient to go home because he knows what is best for his care.

B. Explain the risks of dehydration, respect his decision, and inform the nurse about his
condition.

C. Request an IV for the patient so that the patient can get fluids without drinking
anything.

D. Force him to drink water immediately, because dehydration is dangerous. -
CORRECT ANSWER B. Explain the risks of dehydration, respect his decision, and
inform the nurse about his condition.



A patient has the right to refuse treatment even if this is not in his best interest. In this

situation, the CNA should explain that being hydrated is very important for a person's

health, and then let the nurse know that the patient is refusing treatment. Forcing a

patient to drink water is abuse. A CNA should NEVER hook up an IV and the CNA has

no authority to discharge a patient.

WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS
If a patient refuses treatment and the CNA performs this care on the patient anyway,
what could happen to the CNA?

A. Nothing. CNAs should always perform care on patients regardless of patient wishes.

C. The CNA could be promoted as leader on the floor because he can get things done.

D. The CNA could be charged with assault or battery. - CORRECT ANSWER D. The
CNA could be charged with assault or battery.



A CNA can be charged with assault for threatening to perform care or battery for

touching a patient (providing care) without the patient's consent. A patient must give

consent for treatment. Treating a patient without the patient's consent violates the

patient's rights. A CNA could be fired or arrested for this kind of behavior.



Which is NOT a reason why a CNA should refuse an assignment?

A. The CNA is upset because of a personal conflict with the patient's family.

B. The CNA believes the task is unethical.

C. The task is outside of the CNA's standard of care.

D. Performing the task could be harmful to the CNA. - CORRECT ANSWER A. The
CNA is upset because of a personal conflict with the patient's family.



A personal disagreement with a patient's family is not a valid reason for refusing to

undertake a task. If the task is outside of the CNA's standard of care, the task is

dangerous, or if the CNA believes it is unethical, then the CNA should explain to the
