Residents at Bishop Nursing and Rehabilitation on James Street in Syracuse had a great time on April 7th as the Easter Bunny paid a visit to the residents at the 440-bed skilled nursing facility. Yes, Peter Cotton Tail toured the building and gave out sweets and all kinds of goodies to both residents and staff.

"We always love seeing the smiles on the faces of our residents every holiday, whether it's the winter or spring holidays, the staff puts in more than one hundred percent to make these such happy times for the residents and their families," said Jon Balin, Administrator at Bishop Nursing & Rehabilitation. "The residents are now looking forward to other spring and summer activities but they will always remember the Easter Bunny's visit."
