It was designed to improve the quality of care in long-term health care facilities and to define training and evaluation standards for nursing assistants who work in such facilities. Each state is responsible for following the terms of this federal law.  \nAs defined in the OBRA regulations, a Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program (NATCEP) provides specific standards for nursing assistant related knowledge and skills. The purpose of a NATCEP is to ensure that candidates who are seeking to be nursing assistants understand these standards and can competently and safely perform the essential job functions of an entry-level nursing assistant.  \nThis handbook describes the process of preparing for and taking the nursing assistant competency evaluation and is designed to help prepare test candidates for testing.  \nUNAR Mission Statement  \nToAfect Quality Care by Certifying Quality Nursing Assistants  \nTable of Contents  \nUNAR DEFINITIONS..................................................................................................................................... 6  \nTESTING INFORMATION............................................................................................................................ 7  \nCOMPETENCY EVALUATIONS ..............................................................................................................................7  \nTESTMASTER UNIVERSE (TMU©) ......................................................................................................................7  \nWHERE TO TEST .....................................................................................................................................................9  \nTEST SCHEDULING ................................................................................................................................................9  \nNO SHOW INFORMATION ...................................................................................................................................13  \nREFUND OF TESTING FEES ................................................................................................................................13  \nID REQUIREMENTS .............................................................................................................................................13  \nPERSONAL ITEMS DURING EXAM(S) ................................................................................................................14  \nDRESS FOR SKILLS EXAM ...................................................................................................................................14  \nADA ACCOMMODATIONS ..................................................................................................................................14  \nAUDIO FOR WRITTEN KNOWLEDGE EXAM ....................................................................................................15  \nTRANSLATION INFORMATION ...........................................................................................................................15  \nCHEATING ....................................................","cbCaioirymvYRLh5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioirymvYRLh5","pdf",1733506,63,"English","# UNAR Definitions\n# Testing Information\n## Competency Evaluations\n## TestMaster Universe (TMU©)\n# Where to Test\n# Test Scheduling\n# No Show Information\n# Refund of Testing Fees\n# ID Requirements\n# Personal Items During Exam(s)\n# Dress for Skills Exam\n# ADA Accommodations\n# Audio for Written Knowledge Exam\n# Translation Information\n# Cheating\n# Test Results\n# CNA Certificate\n# CNA Registry\n# Renewal Requirements\n# Expired Certificates\n# Manual Skills Exam Instructions\n# Day of Exam\n# Vital Signs Skills\n## Vital Sign: Blood Pressure\n## Vital Sign: Pulse/Respirations\n# Oral Care/Feeding Skills\n# Denture Care","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of OBRA ’87 and how does it affect nursing assistant training?\",\"answer\":\"OBRA ’87 was adopted to improve care quality in long-term health care facilities and to define training and evaluation standards for nursing assistants.
