staging of pressure ulcer

Happy Monday! J

We have a patient with a stage 3 pressure ulcer and the clinician describes
it as being covered with a thick yellow scab. If I remember correctly a
scab does not make an ulcer unstageable? This is a resumption of care – the
stage 3 comes from the SOC documentation.
