Default Help with Paph Shirly Amundson

My first post here
5 days ago I received my first paphiopedilum orchid -Shirley Amundson. Unfortunately, it didn't arrive in great condition. The leaves were curled and it wasn't seated in the medium, just sitting on top, it actually fell over and I could see a few very short brown hairy roots. To me (i grow phals, dendrobiums, cattleyas) it looked like it was on its way to dying. I gave the roots a quick soak and re-seated it in the medium it arrived in and then put it in the kitchen with the rest of the orchids that are over-wintering inside beneath the under cabinet LED lights they seem to love. This morning i checked on it and its still wobbly.
I'm concerned it won't make it and wanted to ask for any advice. I am going to post 2 pics i took upon its arrival. in the one where the paph is on it side you can see the roots. Can anyone tell me if it looks healthy? are the roots viable? what i can do to help this little plant grow stronger and live? Thanks for your help.
