How to use these

Practise untimed until the concepts are solid, then, once the official time limit is verified, timed. Answer an item and the correct answer and the full explanation appear at once — every explanation is free. The result counts what you got right by topic; it does not invent a verdict.

Nothing on this site is to be performed on a real person on the basis of this site. This is exam preparation, not clinical training. Emergency situations follow the facility's protocol and the direction of the nurse in charge.

Common questions

What are the eight practice topics?
Personal care, basic nursing skills, infection control, safety and emergencies, measurement and reporting, communication, resident rights, and mental health and social needs. Together they cover how the written test is organised, and every topic has its own practice bank here, free in full.
Are these real CNA exam questions?
No. Every question here was written for this site. Real exam items are controlled test material, and this site does not use them.
Do I need an account to practise by topic?
No. Every topic is open, every question is free, and the correct answer and full explanation appear for every item without an account.
