"Meglio" is not a gendered word, so there is no female version of it. So, for both genders it is meglio.

lol ... This is perhaps the strangest thing that is happened to me yet while translating a sentence. I wrote
mia madre è moglie
then looked at it for about ten seconds and realized my 'dyslexic' mistake. After a few more seconds I realized what it actually meant!

I believe using è here denotes your mother being better than something else. Using sta would mean she is feeling better.
