B) primary prevention doesn't seem right, since Nilay already had a wound that needed treatment. I'd go with C) urgent care.

I think the answer is C) urgent care. The triage nurse directed Nilay to an outpatient unit for treatment, which sounds like an urgent care situation rather than emergency care.
