I frequently visit the Riverside Behavioral Health Center on a professional basis, and I have had the pleasure of working with Sarahi Cruz. As the facility social worker Sarahi is always kind and helpful. She is most attentive and professional. I tell her each time I visit how much I appreciate her assistance. Great job Sarahi.
