Need help with a plant

I think this is a parlor palm, but it's so small I can't get a positive ID. My boss just calls it her "little palm" and gave it to me because I'm supposed to be the plant rescue, I guess.
Someone told her it doesn't need a lot of care, and I suspect she's been dribbling water. I gave it a good soak and a flush when I brought it home, and it's at least standing up now. Some of the leaves are very pale looking, although that doesn't show in the photo. The light is on a timer, 12 hours a day, and the bulb is just natural daylight. I don't remember the number but it's what is recommended for the orchids. The air plants seem to like it, but I've never done any kind of palm, parlor or otherwise.

I've had it for 4 days, and am wondering what's next. Can anyone ID it for sure so I can figure out how to get it healthier?
