Kentucky Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) Practice Test

What is the minimum number of in-service education hours a nursing assistant must earn each year?

24 6 12 40

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Regular in-service education keeps CNAs up to date with safe resident care and current practices. In Kentucky, a nursing assistant must earn a minimum of twelve in-service hours each year to keep the certification active. This yearly requirement helps ensure ongoing knowledge on topics like infection control, safe transfer techniques, resident rights, and recognizing changes in residents’ conditions. Over a two-year renewal cycle, that amounts to at least twenty-four hours. Hours can come from the facility’s in-service programs, approved outside courses, or online options, and they must be documented according to state rules.
