Hi,
If your beloved mom has not had received tetanus toxoid injection in the past five years then she has to take a booster dose of this vaccine. See that she takes this booster dose within 48 hours of the injury.
Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
