Welcome Shelby Crowding!
We are delighted to welcome Shelby Crowding, MOT, OTR/L, to the Kith Elder Care team!
A Delaware County native, Shelby grew up in Upper Darby and Media and now lives in Springfield with her husband, two dogs, Stitch and Chicken Nugget, and two cats, Alfredo and Scampi.
Shelby brings a strong background in helping older adults maintain independence, safety, and quality of life.
She earned her Bachelor of Science in Recreational Therapy from Temple University, graduating summa cm laude and receiving her department’s prestigious Outstanding Senior Award. After becoming a Certified Therapeutic Recreational Specialist (CTRS), she worked in an independent living and personal care community before pursuing her Master of Occupational Therapy degree at the University of the Sciences, where she again graduated summa cm laude.
Most recently, Shelby served as a home health occupational therapist with Crozer Hospital, helping individuals remain safe and successful in their own homes.
What drew Shelby to Kith Elder Care is our shared belief that great care starts with understanding the whole person. Her professional philosophy centers on providing individualized support that honors each person's personality, passions, priorities, and goals, always with a focus on maximizing quality of life.
Outside of work, Shelby is passionate about her family of furry companions, animal advocacy, and spending time with the people and causes she loves.
Please join us in giving Shelby a warm welcome to the Kith Elder Care family! We are excited for the knowledge, compassion, and dedication she brings to our clients and their families
