Questions about retaking CNA skills test

Published

I have to retake the CNA skills test but, I'm confused as to what i will be retested on. I failed because of dressing a resident didn't do weak arm first. I only failed 1 skill but I missed 3 steps 1 in nail care and the other 2 in dressing a resident. Will I get all new skills or will I get the skill I failed and 3 new skills including handwashing Any input is greatly appreciated.

So there is no one in the entire state of new jersey who failed the CNA skills test?? Just me i guess. LOL.

search for the PSI Candidate Information Bulletin for the NJ Nurse Aide and it will list all the 22 possible skills to be tested on. I did mine on Ace Healthcare Training Institute (Dover, NJ). With my classmates, we all had handwashing as our first skill and the other 4 are random. Goodluck!!

Thanks for responding... you are the only one who did. But I've gotten my certification since I posted that question.

So when u went to retake it, did they retest u on the particular skill that u failed initially, for example, say u failed amulation in th first one,did they test you on ambulation when u retook the skill test. i failed taking blood pressure and am wondering if they will include it in my test when i go to retake it next week.
