Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

In a resident's room in a nursing home, it is essential to ensure that there is adequate compartment or drawer space for reasonably secure storage of personal clothing and belongings. This helps maintain the resident's privacy, security, and organization of their personal possessions within their living space. Having designated storage areas within the room also promotes a sense of autonomy and control for the resident regarding their personal items. A locking mechanism (Option B) may not always be necessary or practical for personal storage in a resident's room, and storing items under the bed (Option D) may not provide the same level of organization and accessibility as having dedicated compartments or drawers.
