  1. What are basic resident rights in long-term care?

    Federal and state laws protect residents' rights to privacy, dignity, and self-determination in care settings.

  2. What is the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) regarding CNAs?

    Answer: Federal legislation establishing training requirements, competency evaluation, and registry listing for CNAs

    OBRA established minimum federal requirements for CNA training (75 hours), competency testing, and state registry maintenance.

  3. What is informed consent in the CNA's role?

    Answer: The CNA explains care procedures before performing them and respects the resident's right to refuse

    While CNAs do not obtain formal medical consent, they must explain care activities and respect refusal.

  4. What constitutes abuse and neglect in long-term care?

    Answer: Physical harm, emotional harm, sexual abuse, financial exploitation, and failure to provide necessary care

    Abuse and neglect take many forms; CNAs are mandated reporters who must report suspected abuse immediately.

  5. What is a resident's right regarding personal choices?

    Answer: Residents have the right to make decisions about their own care, schedules, and daily activities

    Self-determination means residents maintain control over personal decisions to the greatest extent possible.

  6. What is HIPAA's impact on CNA practice?

    Answer: CNAs must protect resident health information and only discuss it with authorized care team members

    All healthcare workers, including CNAs, must comply with HIPAA privacy protections.
