Memory care in Minnetonka, at Sursum Corda

Sursum Corda is a home located at 4605 Fairhills Road East, in a quiet residential neighborhood in Minnetonka. It is not a wing of a large facility. Set on 1½ wooded acres, the walk-out rambler is intentionally small, with space for up to 10 residents to live, gather, and receive highly personalized dementia care in a true home setting.

Gianna Homes has been caring for older adults and families since 1999. Today, we offer residential memory care in Minnetonka and Plymouth, along with in-home care throughout the western Twin Cities.

The diagnoses we know

We care for people living with Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy body dementia, Parkinson’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and other forms of dementia.

Each diagnosis can affect a person differently, which is why understanding the specific condition matters. When families share a diagnosis with us, it helps our team better understand what to expect and how to provide the most appropriate support.

As dementia progresses, care continues here

Dementia changes over time, and care needs often become more complex. At Gianna Homes, residents can remain in the home they know as those needs change, including through advanced dementia and the end of life.

Our care team works closely with families, physicians, nurse practitioners, hospice providers, and other care partners to support comfort, dignity, and changing medical needs. For families, that continuity can mean fewer disruptive transitions and the reassurance of knowing their loved one can continue to be cared for by familiar people in a familiar place.

Life continues here, too

Even as dementia progresses, there are still opportunities for connection, comfort, routine, music, conversation, favorite foods, time outdoors, and familiar activities. Our team looks for ways to meet each resident where they are and create meaningful moments throughout the day.

Questions families ask

Where exactly is Sursum Corda located?
4605 Fairhills Road East, Minnetonka, MN 55345. As you drive through the neighborhood, you won’t see a large building or prominent sign. You’ll find what Gianna Homes is meant to be: a real home in a quiet residential neighborhood.
Will my loved one have their own room?
Yes. Rooms at Gianna Homes are private, giving each resident a personal space of their own. But residents don’t spend their days alone in their rooms. Much of daily life happens together in our shared spaces — gathering for meals, activities, conversation, music, and simple moments of connection throughout the day.
What if you don't have an opening?
If Gianna Homes does not currently have an opening, we encourage families join our wait list so we can stay in touch as availability changes. In the meantime, Gianna HomeCare is a wonderful option for receiving support right away. Our care team can come into your loved one’s home to provide personal care, companionship, medication assistance, and other support.
