hi
first of all she needs evaluation for cause of bleeding from nose .
collapse suggests cardiac or neurological pathology .
but it bleeding from nose not controlled , she needs nasal packing or as a next step cautery of bleeders in nose .
but on the same time her general condition improvement is of utmost importance
