Risks from being cut by raw poultry bone

Question

Asked for Male, 38 Years

My wife got slightly cut by raw poultry bone while doing marination, immediately washed the wound with handwash & applied Dettol. Please let me know if any other measures need to be taken ? She took T.T injection 8 months back. Is there any chance of tetanus or rabies ? Thank you for any valuable suggestion.
