Caregiving is like tending a forest: each person is a unique tree, and together we create a resilient, interconnected community.
​
Through empathy, servant leadership, and compassionate care, I strive to help caregivers and families feel rooted, supported, and empowered.
Who is Christabel Smith?
For over 25 years, I have worked across all levels of care—including nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, palliative care, and senior living communities. Like the deep roots of a tree, this breadth of experience grounds my practice in strength and resilience.
​
My expertise has branched outward nationally through presentations for organizations such as the National Association of Activity Professionals (NAAP) and the Pennsylvania Activity Professional Association (PAPA). I have also led an international webinar for CoWe-Best and served on a mental health panel at NAAP’s National Conference, representing long-term care.
