if she is a nurse shouldn't she already know the correct procedure to go about for this type of incident

All staff in the Care Industry are normally up to date with Hep B vaccine shots, how much these shots help, I do not know. However surly your friend would have asked and had all this sorted in the Hospital in which they work ??? On this basis your question is very odd !
