Oklahoma CNA case studies
Oklahoma CNA · Put your knowledge to work in context.
The Oklahoma Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) credential is a state designation that allows a nurse aide to provide direct care in long-term care settings under the supervision of a licensed nurse. Candidates are usually people entering the direct-care workforce, often for the first time, who complete a state-approved nurse aide training program and then sit a competency examination. This study set follows the ten content areas that make up the exam blueprint: communication and interpersonal skills; infection control; safety and emergency procedures; resident rights and promotion of independence; basic nursing skills and personal care; nutrition and hydration; mental health and social service needs; care of cognitively impaired residents; restorative care and range of motion; and legal and ethical aspects and the role of the nurse aide. Because the blueprint weights those ten domains equally, a broad, rotating study plan outperforms deep-diving a single topic. The Oklahoma CNA case studies are 5 cases and about 3,626 words.
