After 3 doses or more of TT containing vaccine, tetanus vaccine needed if 5yrs since last dose in infected wounds.
Next Steps
So she's protected as its not 5yrs since her 3rd dose of DPT. Assuming that she got the 3 doses of DwPT or DaPT

You can take 16-18 months tetanus containing booster immediately.  It would help.
