Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

Under which conditions can a resident be housed in a locked unit?

1. The resident owns a pet

2. The resident has financial difficulties

3. The resident consents, court finds need for it, or emergency transfer with proper documentation

4. The resident doesn't like socializing

The correct answer is: The resident consents, court finds need for it, or emergency transfer with proper documentation

Residents can be housed in a locked unit under specific conditions such as when the resident consents to it, when the court finds a need for it, or in case of an emergency transfer with proper documentation. This is crucial to ensure the safety and well-being of the resident while also respecting their rights and dignity. The other options (A, B, D) do not address the necessary conditions required for housing a resident in a locked unit.
