Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

For a nurse aide training program, clinical assignments should encompass which of the following?

1. Care of children only

2. Care of clients with varied levels of care needs

3. Pharmaceutical management

4. Strictly emergency procedures

The correct answer is: Care of clients with varied levels of care needs

Clinical assignments for a nurse aide training program should involve patients with varied levels of care needs so that the trainee can gain a wide range of experience and skills. Option A is incorrect because it limits the scope of practice to just children, which would not provide a well-rounded experience for the trainee. Option C is incorrect because pharmaceutical management is typically not within the scope of practice for a nurse aide and may require additional education and certifications. Option D is incorrect because although emergency procedures are important, a nurse aide should also be able to provide non-emergency care to patients.
