She can come to Switzerland as a tourist and if she obtains an EHIC from the Department of Health in the UK she will be covered for emergency medical treatment. However, they also advise taking out a tourist insurance to cover items that the EHIC does not cover, for example, repatriation if she had to go back to the UK as on a stretcher, which is very expensive.
Thank you very much... That is very useful!!!
