1. She cannot switch to a work category visa while in the UK as a visitor. Any work visa she must apply for from abroad.

2. She needs a sponsoring employer and must qualify for a Skilled Worker Visa. There is no other route simply because she wants to work and live here. She has to follow the proper process and find a job with an employer who will be prepared to sponsor her for a visa, either Skilled Worker or Healthcare worker visa.
