What attracted you to CVCH?
CVCH’s competitive pay rate and employee benefits are what attracted me to the company, and getting to know the other members of the Behavioral Health team is what sealed the deal. A lot of hard work has gone into creating an impressive Behavioral Health Program, and I am excited to be a part of that.
