Depends: If the person is sexually active it s usually hysterectomy with reconstruction of the pelvis by a uro/gyn specialist. If the person is not sexually active usually a simple procedure called colpocleisis. The uterus is retained and the vagina is closed this reducing the prolapse completely.

Lots of treatments: Easiest thing to do is try a pessary. Pessaries are inexpensive and pretty easy to use. When successfully fitted, 80 % of people will continue to use up to 5 years.
