Home › CNA Practice Tests › Psychosocial Care Skills Questions › Question 105
A resident says she wants her daughter involved in decisions about her daily routine. The nursing assistant should:
- A.Support the wish by passing it to the nurse so family involvement can be included in the care plan
- B.Tell the resident family should never be involved in care
- C.Make routine changes with the daughter without telling the nurse
- D.Keep the request to yourself to avoid extra paperwork
Correct answer
A. Support the wish by passing it to the nurse so family involvement can be included in the care plan
Why
Residents may choose family involvement, and the request should reach the nurse so it is planned and documented. Acting alone or ignoring the wish bypasses the care team and the resident's rights.
