THE TMU BLUEPRINT CHALLENGE
Stop Guessing What To Study
The Kentucky TMU exam covers a massive amount of material. Between Safety, Client Rights, Disease Processes, and Basic Nursing Skills, it is incredibly easy to feel paralyzed by the sheer volume of information.
Why students fail:
- Drowning in hundreds of textbook pages
- Practicing the wrong skills at the wrong time
- No clear daily focus or accountability

CRITICAL FAILS TO AVOID IN NAIL CARE
❌ Forgetting to wash hands before and after care
❌ Not identifying the resident and explaining the procedure
❌ Skipping gloves if required by facility policy or if contact with body fluids is possible
❌ Using water that is too hot for soaking hands/feet
❌ Cutting toenails (many CNA exams only allow filing/cleaning; check your testing rules)
❌ Not checking for redness, swelling, sores, or signs of infection and reporting concerns
❌ Leaving the resident unsafe or uncomfortable after care (bed low, call light within reach)
