Resident Rights practice questions

Resident rights are the protections a resident holds, and the written exam asks what an assistant does to respect them. The rights include privacy, dignity, the right to refuse care, the right to be informed, and freedom from abuse and neglect. The exam asks about these as duties: closing the curtain before care, knocking before entering, explaining before doing, and honouring a resident's refusal rather than arguing. It also asks about abuse — that an assistant has a duty to report suspected abuse, and that reporting is not optional. A resident's belongings are theirs, and so is the room they live in. The exam asks about the right to make a complaint and have it heard, the right to join activities and to see family, and the right to be told what is planned and to take part in that decision. Independence is treated as part of dignity: a resident who can do something for themselves is left to do it. The questions in this domain test the concepts most often examined, each written for this site, with the full explanation free. The exam does not test an assistant on the fine legal text; it tests whether they know the rights in everyday terms and act on them. Nothing here is legal advice, and nothing here is care instruction.
