Bike injury: If the ct scan is normal, typically, there is no serious injury. However, if she begins to behave strangely, show memory lapses, or lose consciousness, call her doctor immediately.

Probably OK: The ct was probably ordered to look for any hemorrhage, and it is extremely sensitive for that. If the ct is negative, there is probably nothing to worry about, especially if she has also been examined by a neurologist.
