When Joe needed urgent medical help, Shelby W., OT, stepped in without hesitation, recognizing the emergency, calling for help, and providing critical details to EMTs. Joe’s daughter, Eileen, shared, "Shelby’s attentiveness toward Dad made a real difference during a stressful time."Eileen went on to say, "What is very important to note is that I chose Shelby [to contact] because I trusted her. That is a great character trait! Her active reading that morning keyed in on the urgent medical need for Dad." Shelby’s quick thinking and immediate response played a crucial role in getting Joe the help he needed.Thanks to the teamwork of Shelby, Tricia, and Monika, Joe is now back on his feet—"literally, he's back up on his rollator!"

Shelby’s actions went beyond her job description, and her extraordinary care is truly something to be celebrated.In recognition of Shelby’s heroic efforts, leadership paid a special visit to Juniper Communities (Village at Hamilton) to personally thank her and celebrate her exceptional work. Tricia shared, "Shelby is a shining star already in her young career!"

Here's what Shelby has to say about her experience as an OT: "My goal as a therapist is to provide my patients with the best level of care possible to assist with them reaching their functional goals and living life as independently as possible. I hope to make therapy fun yet meaningful for all my patients, and take time to listen to their goals and create interventions that help them reach their goals.
