Passive Range of Motion

Published

My skills test for my CNA program is next Wednesday, and this subject is a huge problem for me. No matter how much I read the passive range of motion excerises, I can't remember them at all. We have to say the name as we do them and that just makes it so much more harder for me. Any advise on studying/remembering them?

When studing, actually DO them on family,friends and anyone else you can. Saying out loud each one and each step as you do it will help it go in.

When you can't get anyone to help you, go them on yourself or write them down as you say it outloud.

It's actually not that hard each exercise goes together like Its not anything far off like hand and foot. If it's foot is something close by like leg. If it's Hand then you do the arm as well. For the ROM skill just memorize the body parts used and the exercise for it.
