Dog bite, Is RIG needed?

My mother was bitten by a stray puppy on the lower leg today. Small amount of blood was visible but no active bleeding or blood flowing and no pain. She went to a government hospital within about 10-15minutes. She received may be TT and ARV vaccine (you can see a shared picture prescription) and a schedule for further rabies vaccine. However, doctor didnt inspect or examine the wound before prescribing vaccinations. After receiving the vaccine at the hospital, she returned home and washed the wound thoroughly with soap and water for about 15 minutes. The washing was done approximately 30–45 minutes after the injury. Afterward, Savlon antiseptic cream was applied. I have attached photos of the wound (after wash) and the prescription. Could you please advise: 1. Does this look more like a Category II or Category III rabies exposure? 2. Was washing the wound 30-45minutes after exposure still useful? 3. Based on the photos and history, should rabies immunoglobulin (RIG) be considered?
