We are having a discussion about a resident who therapy just discharged. Was treating due to CVA (non-compliant). While skilled under therapy, obtained a shear? on his coccyx that is now slough covered, getting daily wound care with a debreding agent and has an appointment with wound clinic. Can this be stretched to cover him still due to impaired bed mobility secondary to CVA was the reason shearing occured?
