About Gianna Homes - Sursum Corda in Minnetonka, Minnesota
Gianna Homes - Sursum Corda is a large walk-out rambler style home located on a one and one-half acre wooded lot in a quiet residential neighborhood of Minnetonka. All of our resident rooms are on the main level where we also have four (4) bathrooms (two being very large with a full handicap shower), a kitchen, a dining room, a four season porch with views of the woods, den, sun room, living room, and an elevator which takes residents to the lower level. The lower level features a large family room (where we hold activities), a chapel, a laundry room, a carport (for covered access), our offices, and an additional bathroom. The lower level opens out to a beautiful, fenced patio and garden area with walkways, a fountain, and abundant wildlife. It is our goal to offer a variety of activities that address and validate the social, sensory, emotional, spiritual, and physical needs of our residents. Programming is structured around the residents' interest and abilities so that residents can truly participate and enjoy the day's events. We have a high staff to resident ratio with 2 staff 24/7. We have a dedicated RN for the residents at each of our homes, this RN is a hands on RN with daily visits with each of the residents.

My father was admitted to Gianna Homes on hospice based on an early onset, slowly progressing, neurodegenerative disease. He was not imminently dying and was able to ambulate, eat, and interact. We wanted more personalized care than his previous facility, to improve his quality of life and interactions with his loved ones. We were very disappointed with the care at Gianna Homes. I did not feel like staff were providing the promised level of individualized care to my father. A lot of the staff did not feel caring or compassionate. The care felt empty and cold, and we felt like outsiders and an inconvenience. This was not the care I was promised. He declined very quickly and unexpectedly. We believe his quality of life was diminished at Gianna Homes, which was the opposite of what we were intending for him. He passed away 28 Days after arriving. It came as a complete shock that he passed so soon after arrival. This was far from what I was expecting when he moved in and far from the end-of-life experience I wanted for my father and family. During his end of life, I felt like my focus had to be on making sure staff were caring for him properly. I should have been focused on enjoying the last few days/hours/minutes I had left with him. Instead, I feel robbed of this time, and I feel horrible for the end of life experience my father had. My father lasted a brief 28 days at Gianna Homes before passing away. The silver lining is that he and my family didn’t have to suffer through the poor care and experience of this facility for an extended period. If you care for your loved one and the end of life experience you have with them, I recommend you steer clear of this facility.

Gianna Homes is a residential care home. The facility is very small. It is very nice. It seemed like a lovely place. I like that it was really home-like and that fact that it was small. It seemed like they really took good care of their residents. However, it wasn't right for my mom because all the residents there were very far along in their dementia. They did have activities but I don't think the people could really participate very much. They seemed like a lovely group of people, but the community just wasn't right for my mom.
