When is it a Dermatological Emergency?

A 9 year old girl has had a rash for a year. She has been seen by her pediatrician and a dermatologist with no sucess in treating the rash. The rash had acutley worsened over the last four days. The rash, a diffuse pustular rash, covers her whole body, it is itchy and painful, the skin sloughs off and she has a fever.
